Just received in the mail a lovey, well crafted and VERY timely game package from my new friends at Buena Onda Games buena onda means “good vibes” in Spanish, and as founder Patrick Groft explained in his kind note, it speaks directly to his company culture and values.
Their signature crocheted pocket disc Frisbee the “Maya Flya“, pays tribute to the Mayan families who make all of their 100% all-natural, fair trade products by hand, in the mountains of Guatemala.
GUATEMALAN FAIR TRADE – All Buena Onda games feature vibrant colors and folk patterns that have been hand crocheted in Fair Trade conditions by women in Guatemala.
This green business is globally concerned and has been active for 12 years and counting. Their philosophy of active play, highlighting the best of life connecting with family & friends, is much appreciated!
