Trying to cut down on single use plastics, trash, and waste in general? Cool! Us too. These are our absolute favorite products that got us started with creating a more Eco kitchen. Most of our waste comes from our kitchen whether it's using zip-lock baggies for everything, food going to waste, or even just single use paper towels and napkins. So to cut down on a lot of that waste, which also saved us a ton of money, we decided we needed to make more of conscious effort to be more Eco friendly and budget smart.
