Sebago Lake has been providing naturally clean drinking water to Maine’s largest city and surrounding communities for over 150 years. This rare resource is one of only about 50 out of 13,000 water supplies in the United States that is so pure it does not require filtration before disinfection and supply to consumers. This is a tribute to the natural filtering system from the forestland surrounding Sebago Lake. This natural filtration system is shrinking due to rapid development in the area. With only 15% of forestland permanently protected, downstream water quality, pristine wildlife habitat, and public access to nature and outdoor recreation are at risk.

Sebago Clean Waters is a coalition of conservation organizations collaborating with a local water utility to permanently conserve 25% of these forests by 2032. Protecting this land will not only help ensure that 1 in 6 Mainers continue to have clean drinking water, it will also provide connected habitats for fish and wildlife, natural climate solutions, and outdoor access for all. Please join us in safeguarding this pristine resource. Learn more at sebagocleanwaters.org.

Grove Impact Shop is a curated collection of offset and conservation projects offered to Grove Collaborative customers through our assortment of vetted partners. Impact offerings and projects may change based on availability. Grove Collaborative is committed to transparency and sharing data on Grove Impact Shop purchases, aggregate customer purchase totals and updates for offered impact projects as available from impact partners. However, individual donation reports are not available. Your contributions to these programs should be considered in-kind services supporting the missions outlined below by our curated assortment of non-profit and for-profit impact partners, as well as Grove’s maintenance and curation of the Impact Shop. These purchases are not tax deductible, nor are they a donation. In the event that your selected project becomes unavailable your contribution will be earmarked towards a substantially similar alternative with equivalent environmental impact offered by the same project partner that you selected.

Grove is committed to curating this shop with unique and specific offerings that are not always publicly available, as well as vetting partner organizations. A portion of each purchase is dedicated to the maintenance of this program, and our commitment to offer high-impact, high-quality impact projects to the Grove community. You understand and agree that your purchase from the Grove Impact Shop will be included as part of your regular product subscription on the same recurring basis as your other product purchases using your stored method of payment, unless you change or cancel your subscription.
