Hubby doesn't like the starch bags in the compost, he says they don't rot down properly, but I haven't got that option round here, anyway. We did have a local delivery service that used them, but they went out of business.Karinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13913127925431380024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669355936131828670.post-76168548453486898532012-02-17T23:31:00.333+00:002012-02-17T23:31:00.333+00:00It's great what you are doing Karin.

We use Riverford too, though their salad leaves come in plastic bags...<br /><br />Have a good weekend.<br /><br />Kay :)Just Humans Beinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14896514191821358208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669355936131828670.post-74955215906428242322012-02-16T18:14:36.055+00:002012-02-16T18:14:36.055+00:00Hello Rae, thanks for dropping by.

We are lucky to have mixed plastic recycling in at least one place locally, but I must admit, knowing the Suma packaging is recyclable doesn't always make it obvious how to recycle it. I do wish more plastic packaging was recyclable.Karinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13913127925431380024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669355936131828670.post-16623794725096761232012-02-16T18:04:08.360+00:002012-02-16T18:04:08.360+00:00great ideas; thanks for sharing and I loved peekin...great ideas; thanks for sharing and I loved peeking into your veg box. We're getting Abel and Cole ones at the moment and it's great to compare! I'm not a fan of the suma packaging - I've not discovered how to recycle the soft PET; we can't put it in with our bottles as Suma are advising... I'd rather they used polythene which they do for bulk buy of things like seeds or dried fruit. It's so confusing isn't it!mrs green @myzerowastehttp://myzerowaste.comnoreply@blogger.com
