Sustainability in Packing & Shipping

Shipping & Handling Sustainability

100% Biodegradable Packing Peanuts

The packing peanuts we use to keep your tea and honey safe during transit are 100% biodegradable. Instead of sticking around forever like styrofoam packing peanuts, our biodegradable fill will break down within a few hours to days, leaving behind no microplastics, toxic residue, or chemicals.

65% Post-Consumer Plastic Bubble Wrap

You may have noticed that our bubble wrap is green! That's because all the bubble wrap we use is either made from 65% post-consumer plastic or reused and repurposed from shipments we receive.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!
