Vermont Green FC is pleased to announce a collaboration with Guayakí Yerba Mate to be the official Yerba Mate supplier of the club. With our shared investment in environmental sustainability and social justice, Guayakí is an ideal partner for Vermont Green FC.
“Mate and soccer go hand-in-hand, and after you add environmental sustainability to the equation you have the perfect combination. More and more elite professional footballers are drinking mate as part of their pre-game ritual, and not just in South America. We’re absolutely thrilled to work with Guayakí as our official Yerba Mate supplier.” said Vermont Green FC cofounder Patrick Infurna.
Guayakí Yerba Mate employs a uniquely coined “Market Driven Regeneration” strategy that puts the regeneration of the planet at the core of their business model and prioritizes environmental justice in their supply chain. The strategy allows the consumer to have a positive impact with each purchase. As a Social Purpose Corporation, Guayakí reports on its social and environmental impact every year.
Vermont Green FC was officially announced as a USL League 2 club on October 12, 2021, and will play home games at the University of Vermont’s Virtue Field. Season tickets for the inaugural campaign are now available at vermontgreenfc.com/season-tickets.
