Young Living Essential Oils, known for their pure aromas and natural benefits, recently earned a nod of approval from Utah’s eco-conscious community. They snagged the 2023 Green Business Award, thanks to their green thumb in environmental care.

But it’s not all about the small critters. They’ve also turned their attention to the stately bighorn sheep. At their Skyrider Wilderness Ranch, they’ve set up Utah’s first nursery for these lovely animals, giving them a fighting chance against extinction.
