In 2005 it was recorded that about 16% of all solid waste in
landfills was comprised of plastic materials. In an effort to cut down
on unnecessary pollutants and provide consumers with a sustainable
solution to this problem, the Prairie Moon Company is offering new biodegradable, recyclable, and compostable products.. These products are disposable, but can be reused and are ideal for camping trips, picnics, or parties.

Introducing bagasse soup bowls & dip plates
made from an ingenious new biomaterial known as Bagasse. Bagasse is an
extraordinary by-product that results from the sugar refining process.
It is a sugar cane fiber that has traditionally been thrown away or
burned. Recent developments have allowed sugar cane pulp to be made
into a durable, eco friendly substance known as Bagasse.
One of the most practical uses for Bagasse is the disposable
dishware we now offer. These bowls are biodegradable, compostable, and
eco friendly. Bagasse dishes are also strong and sturdy, which makes
these unique dishes a perfect alternative to environmentally harmful
Styrofoam dishware.
These bowls are fully heat tolerant, capable of containing boiling
water up to 212°F. Bagasse bowls are perfect for preparation and
preservation as well because they are microwave and freezer safe. There
is no wax or plastic lining to contaminate these purely organic
products either, so you can feel comfortable using a home composting
system. Because Bagasse is a natural by-product and it is derived from
a renewable resource, there really is no reason not to go organic and
choose something that reduces pollution and saves the environment.
