Compost and Worm Farms
If you’re a home composter, you’ve got the green light to compost whenever you see the ‘home compostable’ label on our loose leaf tea wraps.

Our teabags are biodegradable and will eventually break down in a home composting environment however for a quicker breakdown it's best that they are commercially composted. We recommend checking with your local council about options for disposal as some councils may accept through general green waste.

All our loose leaf tea leaves can be put into your home worm farm/compost. For your worm farm we’d suggest testing different teas in a small quantity first, and recommend avoiding teas with high acidity ingredients like citrus.
