Red Barn News & Specials – Compostable vs Biodegradable 👣👣👣
Hello to you all!
We have some new products for you! Bonnie-Bio’s Compostable bags and clingwrap and Earthshine’s delicious, incredibly healthy snacks.
I never knew the difference between BIODEGRADABLE and COMPOSTABLE!
Compostable means that a product is capable of disintegrating into natural elements in a compost environment, leaving no toxicity in the soil. This typically must occur in about 90 days.
Some companies advertise their products as merely biodegradable. This is not necessarily a good thing since nearly everything will biodegrade in between 1,000 and 10,000 years!
Earthshine, make the tastiest, healthiest Florentine biscuits, cookies and Granola. The list of ingredients is really impressive.
Don’t forget our Boerseep, which takes stains out of laundry like nothing I have ever seen before and of course our Triple Orange earth-friendly cleaning range that I swear by!
Bee’s wax wraps are so handy, I wrap cheese, sandwiches, bread, leftovers and more in them – so much better than one-use clingwrap!
