Please allow me to introduce myself

Hi. Let me introduce myself. I'm Lori. The Lori in Lori's Earth Friendly Products. My husband Mason and I are the team behind Lori's Earth Friendly Products. How did we get into this type of business? We are vegetarians and are interested in promoting a healthy lifestyle for our family, our community, and our followers. And we want to do our part in saving the planet. I have been a vegetarian for 30 years. But even before that, my Mom raised me on big salads with wheat germ and lecithin.

Mason is the writer, photographer (he took that picture of me over there on the right), and marketing director. I am the programmer of the website and the kid in the candy store. What do I mean by that? I just launched a website with over 10,000 natural products. I'm so excited I can't decide which one to try next!

Should I try a natural skincare system? How about some volumizing shampoos and conditioners? Look at all these great nutrition bars and snacks that can support my weight-loss journey with Weight Watchers. Or protein bars and protein powders to have before a workout. Maybe we can find some healthy treats for our dog. Look--biodegradable doggie poop bags! Yum--hemp hearts on my salad. It has a great nutty flavor and is packed with nutrients. Let's get some luscious pampering soaps for our friends. I want to try a cutting board and a colander made from recycled food containers. Why don't we plant some edible flowers? Perhaps our kids would like this tasty vitamin powder. Do you get the idea? This just scratches the surface of all the cool products I get to play with.

So even though Mason is the writer and I am the techno geek, I'm going to try lots of products and tell you all about them. Stay tuned....

Lori's Stories: BioBag

Waste Bags That Can Be Composted!

One of the cool things about the new Lori's Earth Friendly Products is that we're now working with hundreds of companies, all of whom share our goal of improving the planet and our customers' health. Each one has a story—and its own inventive way to make things better. In this blog, we'll be sharing their stories on a regular basis, as well as highlighting products that we think stand out. Here's the first of Lori's Stories.

Plastic bags have staying power, and are wreaking havoc on the environment. A typical plastic bag that you buy at your local supermarket is made with non-biodegradable ingredients, and will not break down for thousands of years. They are polluting the landscape, and poisoning and killing wildlife. It's time to abandon plastic bags!

Enter BioBag.

BioBags are corn-based, and designed to collect waste for the purpose of composting, and because they are corn-based, they can be consumed by micro-organisms that live in our soils. Because of this, BioBags can also be readily composted along with organic waste in municipal composting facilities.

BioBag,  available through Lori's Earth Friendly Products,  is a world leader in providing bags and films for the collection of organic waste for the purpose of composting, and we at Lori's Earth Friendly Products are proud to be able to offer their products to the public. BioBag is a small company of dedicated employees who are fully committed to only producing certified compostable bags and films.

BioBag makes:

• 13 Gallon Tall Food Waste Bags
• 3-Gallon CompostWaste Bags
• 33-Gallon Lawn and Leaf Bags
• Cling Wrap
• Resealable Sandwich Bags
• More!...see the entire BioBag lineup at Lori's Earth Friendly Products

BioBag strongly supports the use of GMO-free certified crops. The resin they produce in their bags is sourced from Italy. Most of BioBags are proudly manufactured in the USA.

Little steps really do make a big difference, especially when creating green products is all BioBags does!
