We think plastic free gardening is one of the best steps to take towards a more eco-friendly lifestyle. Eliminating plastic products from your garden is one of the easier leaps to make, as there's tonnes of excellent like-for-like swaps you can make to more environmentally friendly choices.
Plastic pollution is one of the world's biggest environmental threats right now, and it is continuing to grow. In 2020 alone, it was estimated that the UK consumed over 4.9 trillion tonnes of plastic, of which over three quarters became waste. Huge quantities of plastic enters our waterways, oceans and ecosystems. It causes damage to habitats, injures wildlife and just lingers, polluting our wonderful environments.
Swapping to plastic-free gardening products is just one step you can take to help counteract this pollution. Choose natural mulching products such as our sheep's wool garden felt, or natural jute hessian mulch mats instead of plastic tarpaulin. Or ditching plastic pots in favour of rubber - it's as simple as that!
