Basket Case: Pack an Eco-Friendly Picnic

Worried about all that trash your picnic generates? Don’t have a break down, just go reusable or biodegradable this July 4th. Plastic cups and plates can take up to 700 years to decompose in a landfill … yuck. Try these eco products that’ll make your picnic nicer for you and the planet.

To-Go Ware Recycled PET Case & Bamboo Utensils ($14): Bamboo fork, knife, spoon, and chopsticks in a roll-up pouch made from 100% recycled bottles.

Banana Leaf Picnic Basket ($24.99): Stuff all your goods into this basket made from, you guessed it, banana leaves.

Terramum Eco Cloth Napkins ($17/4): Ditch the paper napkins and go reusable with these super cute, decorative cloth napkins.

Bambu Veneerware™ Bamboo Disposable Plates ($14.95): Set of 8, 11-inch sturdy bamboo plates. They are biodegradable and breakdown in just 6 months!

EarthLust Stainless Steel Bottles ($21): Pack your poison (wine, water, both) in these BPA-free stainless steel bottles. They will keep extra cool and hold up to 1 liter of liquid.

Don’t forget the organic food and a comfy eco blanket made from hemp, organic cotton, or bamboo.

Plastic not only adds to landfill space and takes forever to decompose. Used plastic dumped into the sea kills and destroys sea life at an estimated 1,000,000 sea creatures per year! So go biodegradable or reusable on your picnic.

  1. Hi, possibly i’m being a little off topic here, but I was browsing your site and it looks fascinating. I’m building a blog and trying to make it look neat, but everytime I touch it I mess something up. Did you design the blog yourself? Could someone with little experience do it, and add updates without messing it up? Anyways, good information on here, very useful. I would appreciate it if you visited my blog at south florida plastic surgery
