Dry Grass Straw Box (100 pcs)

Size: diameter: 4.5 - 7.0mm, length: 18 cm  

 

This product supports an acidic soil wetland ecosystem and the straws are sustainably cropped and handmade by craftswomen from Duc Hue, Long An province. The producer will plant a tree which every grass straw box bought. They will plant trees in the rainy season from May to October each year.

 

Dry glass straw helps people from wetlands get more income and acknowledge the values of the ecosystem they’re living in, in order to protect the area from harmful industrial activities. Protecting this ecosystem means the local biodiversity is protected. The people selectively crop the grass by hand instead of cutting it with a sickly and mass burning. The food web and living habitats of other creatures are not affected.

 

Dry grass straw is completely biodegradable!

• Used for liquid drinks 

• Best use within 10 days since opening the box 

• A grass straw should be single-used

• It’s better if you put the used straws in your tree garden or a compost bin. 

 

Storage: 

• Keep grass straws in a dry and cool place

CAN GRASS STRAWS BE REUSED?

These straws are intended for single-use at F&Bs. For individuals, we encourage you to reuse them. Rinse, dab with a clean towel or leave out to dry slightly and put them back in the fridge. We believe that you would not be willing to throw these straws away after just one single use.

 

SHOULD I PUT THE GRASS STRAWS INTO COMPOST BINS?

Grass straws decompose naturally. Please put them into compost or organic waste bins. Mixing up organic and non-organic waste makes it harder for organic matters to decompose, and increases the volume of trash at landfills.

 

ARE THESE GRASS STRAWS EDIBLE?

​You can try. Grass straws are mildly sweet and rich in fibers. Chewing them after eating helps clean your teeth and gum.

 

DOES IT AFFECT THE FLAVOR OF THE DRINKS?

Absolutely not. Grass straws have a very mild and pleasant natural fragrance.
