Sustainable Bamboo Straws

Since we’ve been in Gambia we’ve noticed the use of plastic straws at all of the restaurants we’ve been to. So, we asked Babucarr, known locally as bamboo man to make straws.. and we couldn’t be happier with the result!🎋

Our Bamboo straws are not only sustainable, they also provide Babacarr with much needed income and stimulate the local economy! We say NO to plastic straws, and you should too...they can be reused, they do not harm the environment, and you can feel good knowing that your one simple change goes a long long way!

Availble individually or in sets. For any businesses wanting over 100, please email us at info@growing-green-communities.org 

Please note: Because our straws are handmade from natural bamboo, each one will need washing before first use. If there is any pith on the inside of a straw, it can be brushed out and then washed. Pith is totally natural and edible so should not cause concern. Comes complete with stainless steel cleaning brush with sisal bristles
