Home Compostable Packaging

Big shout out to Durham Farms for using home compostable packaging which breaks down completely in compost bins and worm farms.  Did you know that most compostable packaging needs high heat for a good length of time to break down?  Which means it has to be hot composted in a commerical facility, otherwise it just goes to landfill.  
​Good on you Durham Farms, leading the way!
