The internet has allowed us to "shrink" the world of commerce and communication; however, this benefit has come at a cost of increased environmental impacts through carbon emissions from transportation.

myFootprint's local exchange program is dedicated to connecting customers with artists in their area that source, recycle, and hand-craft lifestyle goods. Under the local exchange program, we have asked our partnering artists to ship directly to customers in keeping with the localization theme.

Customers purchasing through the local exchange program from artists within 250 miles of their residence will receive a free myFootprint gift card upon purchasing. Products within the local exchange section will not be rated under the "footprint analysis program" as the products are mostly "one of a kind". We trust that the products displayed are some of the most sustainable offerings available due to their production methods and sourced materials.

As we are acting as a liaison between artists and customers and would like to respect the controlled pricing of our affiliates, myFootprint discount coupons do not apply to the "Local Exchange" section.
