Eco-Parents Rejoice.




My friend and local surf mom Alyssa Rodas has come up with a brilliant locally made product line for all you eco-friendly parents out there. They are called Semilla Snack Bags and they are reusable/washable bags you use for your kids snacks.

Anyone who cares about sustainability and ecology thinks about what they throw in the trash. They also can't help but cringe at the amount of waste that goes on in the single pack snack industry.

As parents and consumers we have an important role in shaping the future of how our society produces it's products and how our kids are taught about the right way to treat our planet. How we buy and use our products teaches both the companies and our children about what is right and wrong.

Luckily we are all getting wiser to the need to balance convenience with ecology and our choices at the markets are now shaping what companies are producing. It's only a matter of time before an all waste society blossoms into a no waste one.

Until then use your power as the family shopper to make your own home as waste free as possible. While doing that support your local businesses and surf moms (and dads) by supporting them in their efforts to produce eco-friendly products.

Learn more about Semilla Snack Bags and get a Lecuadia Project discount of 15% off by entering "amigos" in the coupon code at checkout. Good until September 6th.

Thank you Alyssa for giving us parents an alternative to plastic bags and waste!
