Say! Little Hen

Sustainable Packaging

Plastic Free Packaging

At Say! Little Hen we don't just care about the sustainability of the yarns you're using, but how they get from us to you.
We use a combination of recyclable (cardboard boxes) and compostable (satchels) for shipping.

What's on the Inside

Your goodies will arrive carefully wrapped in either tissue or brown paper, or a Kraft cardboard box. All of these materials are easily recycled or resused.

We also keep all of the protective packaging that knitting needles and other breakable stock arrives in, to reuse in your orders. So that bubble wrap your knitting needles came wrapped in is that same bubble wrap that was used to ship them from the manufacturer to us. Nothing is wasted.

What's on the Outside

For parcels we use home-compostable satchels by Hero Packaging. These satchels can be composted at home and are made from fully compostable, natural materials (co-polymer and cornstarch).
I love these bags and think it's pretty cool that you can pop them into your worm farm or compost bin and they'll break down into nutrients for your plants!

We also use cardboard shipping boxes which are recyclable or great for reusing yourself.
