When it comes to Easter decor, one of the most common staples found in baskets across the country is Easter grass—the colorful shredded material used to cushion eggs, chocolates, and small gifts. But did you know that traditional plastic Easter grass is a major contributor to holiday waste? This year, make the eco-conscious switch to all-natural Easter grass for a more sustainable celebration.
The Problem with Plastic Easter Grass
Plastic Easter grass is typically made from PET or PVC, both of which are non-biodegradable. Once discarded, these plastic shreds often end up in landfills, oceans, and waterways, contributing to pollution and harming wildlife. In fact, millions of pounds of plastic Easter grass are produced and disposed of each year, adding to the growing plastic waste crisis. Because it’s lightweight and difficult to recycle, much of it escapes into the environment where it can take hundreds of years to break down.
A Natural Alternative for Easter Decor
At Sunnyside Gardens, we’re excited to offer all-natural Easter grass, a biodegradable and compostable alternative made from shredded paper, raffia, or natural fibers. This eco-friendly option provides the same decorative touch without the environmental harm. Plus, it’s reusable, making it a simple yet impactful way to reduce waste this holiday season.
