[SLI-public] Vendor suggestions - Environmentally friendly paper products, lids, & utensils

[Julie Finch]

Here's a couple vendors I just found. https://greenpaperproducts.com/collections/industries/restaurant, https://www.webstaurantstore.com/green-restaurant-supplies.html, https://www.goodstartpackaging.com/restaurants/ - they are not vetted

Also, a local coop here in the area has compostable straws and whatnot for their "restaurant options" they might be able to help you. https://www.newpi.coop/sustainability

Hello,

For libraries with a cafe - Does anyone know of vendors who sell environmentally friendly paper products, lids, and utensils?

Thank you in advance!
