Not to be mistaken for a Jellyfish....

So I’m *that* person, walking along the beach with their hands full of garbage.  I’m washable, so I don’t mind picking it up, taking it to a trash can, and removing some waste from the beach and ocean.  I do the same on home waters….you can often find me on the lakes around here with a few pieces of garbage on the nose of my paddleboard.  Its been cooking in my brain for a while about the soap bags we use at Green Springs.  As much as I love our natural soaps, I hate the bags.  Those plastic things, that when floating in water, would look an awful lot like a jellyfish, at least it would to a sea turtle.  The chance of these plastic bags getting into our waterways bothers me and there is something I can do about it.  So, now, we have choices. Two choices.  One choice is a compostable bag.  These bags look a lot like the bags we used to use; however, they are certified compostable.  The bags are a little more rigid and cost me, well, a good bit more.  Choice two is a compostable waxy sheet of paper that we can wrap around the soaps and is on par in price to our former bags. 
I chose to go with compostable options and I am not passing along the cost to you.  Your choice is the compostable bag (one or more per bag) or the compostable sheets (one or more per sheet).  You tell us which you want for your soaps, and we’ll make it happen.  If you opt for one or more bars of soap in the sheets of paper, we’ll toss in a sample or two for choosing the less expensive option, just our way of saying thanks. 
This makes me happy.  Every time we make a choice to better the world, the better the world will be.
