Eco-friendly Picnic Pack

Eco-friendly Picnic Pack

By Scott Lachut on July 2, 2009

In a summer season filled with outdoor BBQ’s and picnics in the park, a level of convenience and disposability goes a long way. Unfortunately, for most of us that generally means trash bags overflowing with plastic cups and utensils, paper plates and napkins destined for the dump.

Enter Branch’s Biodegradable Party Kit, an all-in-one package with everything you need to serve 50 at your next gathering. The plates, cups and bowls are made from 100% sugar cane fiber (bagasse), the utensils are produced with potato starch and the napkins are from recycled paper. And while it can’t match the sustainability of reusing your dishes at every event, as an alternative, this kit just might be the next best thing.
