last summer a customer mailed me a bio-degradable compostable coffee bag. i was skeptical, but i tossed it in my compost barrel to see what would happen. three months later there was no sign of it — it had turned back into soil…
so now i’m happy to announce that all the brown colored bags with happy mug coffee in them are made from 40% recycled paper and annually renewable plants, and when it is empty, please remember to compost it and start the cycle all over again. just remove the metal tin-tie from the bag, and peel off the labels. at this time the glue and ink used on the label are not bio-degradable.
