At East Van Buds, we understand how important it is to stay connected with our valued members. That's why we want to make sure that you receive all our important emails straight to your inbox.

Sometimes emails land in your junk/spam box if you do not have the sender of the email saved on your contact list. Whitelisting us with your email provider will ensure that all emails from East Van Buds will be delivered to your inbox.
