eco-friendly disposable dishes

disposable plates and silverware are great for parties. use them once, then throw them away, and never think of them again...except that they're sitting in a landfill somewhere.

to mitigate the lasting environmental impression your grand affair makes, check out verterra dinnerware. they have bowls, plates and platters that are made from 100% renewable and compostable plant matter. they contain no chemicals, waxes or dyes, so there are no harmful toxins to leach into your food. and the product degrades in only 2 months.

as a bonus, verterra is also a socially conscious company that uses fair trade labor practices, so you can feel good about how they were made.

bon appetit!
