Profits Hidden Under the Fallen Leaves

Biodegradable plates from VerTerra (true to the Earth) are a great alternative to yucky paper or plastic dishes. These plates are made from organically-grown palm tree leaves from India. The fallen leaves, which would traditionally have been burned on the roadside, are collected, sterilized, steamed and pressed into plates. The process uses no chemicals, glues or bonding agents, and over 80% of the water employed during the steaming and pressing process is recaptured and recycled. Best of all, these plates are 100% natural and biodegradable.
