Now’s your chance to make summer last with
an end-of-season picnic. Here’s what you can do to avoid an
over Mowing garbage can.
p l a t e s
Eco-disposable isn’t an oxymoron when you use
dinnerware made from compostable recycled paper. Look
for Chinet Casuals in your supermarket aisle (about $3 for
44 plates). Heavy-duty Whole Foods 365 bowls and plates
are made from renewable, biodegradable sugar cane.
u t e n s i l s
Biodegradable utensils made from potato scraps
and bio-resins can be used for cold and hot foods. Stock up
on a combo set (250 sets for $46;
greenhome.com).
r i g h t w r a p p e r s
Ditch plastic bags for aluminum foil.
Make aluminum pockets and fill with chips and cookies.
Foil-wrapped sandwiches stay cooler longer. When done,
use crumpled foil to scrub the grill clean or recycle it with
aluminum cans.
“Here’s the perfect picnic treat:
Fruit that com es in waste-free
‘wrapping,’ such as bananas,
apples, and oranges.
n a p k i n s
For small parties, try inexpensive, colorful
bandannas. They’re sturdy, soft, and machine washable
for reuse. Or look for napkins made from 100 percent
post-consumer recycled paper. One brand I love is
Marcal
(marcalpaper.com).
