TetraPak

TetraPak is the packaging that many food items are now being offered in, mostly milk and juice boxes and the soymilks. Anyway, I could never seem to find a recycle label on them and started to wonder how great they are. I was happy to find they are recyclable, and the company works in close partnership with suppliers who provide the wood pulp needed for the inner core to make sure they are foresting in a sustainable and renewable, responsible manner. They have a program in placeto monitor and rate these suppliers, working closely with them to ennsure quality of the forestation process. They also work towards minimal enviroment impact. So, I was happy to learn that since my new favorite"treat" drink (hempmilk) comes in those. www.tetrapak.com

Is this the same packaging as the Horizon milks? I've been trying to figure out if I can recycle those!

If you're reading for the first time, it may feel a bit like you've just walked into a conversation that has been going on for awhile.

So to catch you up...

Jennifer started this blog because she was going through the process of becoming more conscious of her lifestyle choices and had decided to "go green". As she talked to her friends she quickly realized that she was not the only one interested in making changes. The blog was born. We used this as a place to discuss things we've tried and to support each other in the journey.
