  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Use Reusable Utensils
    How can you be an advocate for using resusables instead of disposables for the rest of your community? Where are they currently dependent on disposable cutlery, and how can you convince them of the need for change?

    Take our own reusable silicone and stainless steel straws to summer social events and post pics using them on social media.
    Only offer silverware at my own social gatherings. They really are reusable in my high efficient dishwasher using my super eco friendly detergent.

      How do you like the silicone straw? We bought stainless steel but I like to chew/bite down on my straw.

      Great job on providing your own silverware at gatherings.
