verterra leaf based compostable bowlsI just had a bowl of cereal, in a palm leaf. No I’m not on a tropical island. Nor am I on a eco commune. I’m here in snowy Grass Valley, trying out the new line of compostable serviceware from Verterra. And I have to say I’m very impressed.

I’ve used quite a lot of eco friendly compostable/biodegradable plates, utensils, cups, etc. in my time, and these are the best I’ve come across.

I am simply smitten with the cute organic cotton blouses from the Velvet Leaf ~ a sustainable clothing company.

Velvet Leaf defines sustainability as:

The ability to provide for the needs of the world’s current population without damaging the ability of future generations to provide for themselves. When a process is sustainable, it can be carried out over and over without negative environmental effects.
