Wooden Utensils

Compost

A Truly Compostable Option

Wooden utensils are a preferred alternative to bioplastic (which belongs in the landfill) because they are accepted in commercial composting facilities and can effectively break down.

Use Reusable Utensils

Even though wooden utensils are compostable, reusable utensils save more resources than disposable ones.
