]]> While there’s certainly no shortage of organic, vegan, and other “save the planet” health foods out there, those who are really serious about making a difference should also be invested in the quest to eradicate the use of dispoable plastics. Finding and eating the food may be the fun part, but have you ever considered whether or not you were contributing to our planet’s problems through the cutlery or utensils you were using? Plastic knives and forks are extremely abundant at festivals, supermarkets, barbecues, and garden parties, mostly because they’re easy to get hold of, cheap to manufacture, and particularly handy if you’re the kind of person that sneaks them into your handbag for future use. Still, there are much greener options to consider when picking out your party supplies this summer.

Here are four brilliant sustainable alternatives to plastic cutlery that’ll bring about positive change in the world and start a ton of interesting conversations!

Made from 100-percent renewable resources and officially recognized by the Smithsonian as being the first of its kind in the USA, VerTerra’s “Fallen Leaves” collection offers some great sustainable alternatives to disposable paper and plastic plates. The designs have been described as stylish and chic whilst remaining true to their functionality with environmental impact. Made of only two simple products, fallen palm leaves and water, these plates will naturally biodegrade around two months after their disposal.

This dinnerware collection is versatile in terms of options, sizes, and styles, so no matter what you’re cooking, you can do it with a clean conscience!
