You may have noticed a slight difference in our carrot bags. Just before Christmas we released our new carrot packaging. We are very excited now to be able to offer you a degradable carrot bag. They are still made of plastic; however they have an additive in them that allows the plastic to break down through oxidation into small fragments, which then decompose into the natural elements of carbon dioxide, water, biomass, and minerals.

In an ideal world we would prefer to not be using any plastics. However in order to maintain the integrity of our products we need to prepack for many of the retail stores we supply. We do not want our organic produce mixed up with conventional produce. We need to be pre packed and bar coded, so our produce is available to as many consumers as possible, and ensures us traceability.
You will also see the packaging design has changed slightly, and you can now see our yummy organic carrots in the bag more clearly. We would love to hear your feedback.
