Linen Napkins for Sustainability

April 27, 2018

bust magazine feature april 18Sustainability advocate Sara Tso wrote an illuminating article about her zero-waste kit, the tools and supplies she uses on a daily basis to reduce her consumption and waste. I was delighted to see that Sara recommended our linen napkins, which she uses in place of paper towels in her lunchbox every day.

“Cloth napkins are multipurpose. Use them to dry your hands (no more paper towels!), for any wipes or spills, or for grabbing a cookie from the local bakery. Splurging on a cute one will ensure its place in your kit.” – Sara Tso

Read more about our focus on sustainability, then browse our natural tabletop goods to create your own zero-waste kit!
