What Is Gratitude? Why Do We Celebrate It?

We’ve all seen the word “gratitude” before, maybe written in script on a décor sign hanging in a relative’s kitchen or printed across a holiday card. Many of us can even remember tracing our hands in elementary school to make paper turkeys and writing something we were grateful for inside each feather. (For the record, my kindergarten masterpiece proudly read: “I am gratful my mom cux and my dad worx hard.” Spelling wasn’t my strong suit then, but the sentiment was solid.. see below for proof!)

Even though we hear the word often, it’s easy to move through our days without truly pausing to acknowledge it. Gratitude can become background noise if we let it. We are here to be sure this word is not forgotten!

In a timely fashion, did you know that November is actually National Gratitude Month? And here at Holganix, this celebration carries real meaning. Gratitude isn’t just a seasonal idea for us; it is a core value woven into how we work, how we serve growers, and how we support one another (learn more about us: here). From the field to the boardroom, gratitude is something we aim to practice intentionally and consistently. 

How We Show Gratitude At Holganix: 

If you spend any time around Holganix, you’ll quickly notice we don’t just say we’re grateful, we show it. In big ways, small ways, and everyday moments in between. Here are some of the ways our gratitude comes to life:

Gratitude Cards

Each member of our team is supplied with cards, envelopes, and stamps to share heartfelt appreciation with anyone who deserves it, within Holganix or throughout the communities we touch.

Community Involvement

From our GoGrow initiative to being a hands-on sponsor of Outlaw Truck and Tractor Pulling, we do our best to thank the communities the growers that trust us call home.

Giving Back to the Ground

Most importantly, we aim our focus everyday to give back to the soil so it can continue to thrive for generations to come. Instead of taking more from the earth, we are aiming to rebuild, replenish, and regenerate it. 

How We Are Showing Extra Gratitude This Month:

Throughout the month of November, we’ll be taking extra time to celebrate the people who make our work meaningful: our growers, our team, our partners, and the communities we serve. You’ll see expressions of gratitude shared across our social channels, from heartfelt messages to handwritten notes, small gifts, and stories from the field.

Watch the 1-minute video below where Barrett Ersek, Holganix CEO, shares his message of gratitude.

We’ll be highlighting voices from across the Holganix family: the farmers nurturing the soil, the team innovating behind the scenes, and the partners who walk alongside us. Each story is a reminder that we grow stronger together

So, here’s to kicking off National Gratitude Month. Stay tuned... and don't forget to show extra gratitude towards everyone in your life through the month!
