At the Beach with Bambu

This weekend we are headed to the coast to enjoy the remaining days of summer. We typically pack an assortment of goodies to eat throughout the day. The last time we made the trip to Bodega Bay, we stopped off at our favorite Whole Foods Market to pick up some items as well as some forgotten paper plates and utensils.

Not realizing there was a better, more eco-friendly alternative available, I was happy to find bambu Veneerware plates and picnic utensil packs. Excited to see bambu was a great alternative to paper plates and plastic forks, we felt good about the fact that bambu plates biodegrade naturally within 4-6 months after disposal. It was also good to know that there are no bleaches or dyes in their product. Their products are made from bamboo peeled directly from the stalk and bamboo is recognized as a highly renewable resource.

Sturdy and stylish, bambu was great for our picnic at the beach. Thin like paper plates, we were surprised how durable they held up with fruit salad and other saucy delights.

I love bambu's philosophy and guiding principles for their commitment to eco-smart innovation. "We exist to create interest and excitement around renewable materials and sustainable practices; we do that with original design, innovation and imagination."

Now, that's Extraordinique!
