Sidebars_aboutproj
Next time you go to the store, make the effort to notice all the potential waste from food packaging. After purchasing, produce packaging is repackaged in plastic bags convenient for transportation. After consumption, the garbage is placed in trash cans, and magically whisked away. The garbage begins its journey to overflowing landfills, and it ends its journey centuries later after it 'finally' biodegrades. The Bloom Box encourages people sitting on the fence of eco-consciousness to hop off, stop wasting materials from packaging, and make a stand in preserving the world for future generations by growing food that will never need packaging.
