As it comes to the end of PLASTIC FREE July we are reflecting on our efforts to reduce the use of single use plastic from our everyday life.

Plastic takes over 100000 years to break down, which means every little bit of plastic ever created still exists today. 

One easy way you can easily reduce single use plastic from the kitchen is to replace cling-wrap with beeswax wraps.

Another great way to stop the single use plastic is to buy your honey in jars and return the jars to your beekeeper. 

Many health food shops are now allowing customers to fill there own jars of honey.

Amberdrophoney.com.au are selling raw zero waste honey in compostable bags that you can receive in the post .

When we refuse to buy plastic packaged goods we lower the demand for them. In return this is much better for our health, environment and quality of life.
