Very cool 'green' disposable dinnerware


From VerTerra - environmentally-friendly plates, bowls and serving dishes are made only from two products: fallen leaves and water. They're non-toxic, biodegradable, compostable, durable, lightweight, convenient and downright stylish.

(And no, I get nothing from this company.  I just think it's a cool product).

After collecting fallen leaves that would normally be burned, VerTerra apllies steam, heat and pressure to transform the leaves into durable products that will naturally compost in 2 months.

VerTerra products are made in South Asia, where our employees receive fair wages in safe working conditions and are provided access to health care.

A few more facts about this cool disposable dinnerware:

  • BPI-certified 100% compostable
  • No heat transference and maintains shape when in contact with hot substances
  • Microwave-safe up to 2 minutes on high and oven-safe for up to 45 minutes at 350 degrees
