Throw a green party with disposable leaf plates

leaf plate.jpgWhat could be more fitting for an Earth Day party than serving your canapes on biodegradable plates made from leaves?

The all natural plates are made from sal and siali leaves, from the forests of Orissa, east India, where they have been used for centuries at festivals and weddings. Making the plates is a popular activity in these areas, with many women working on them at home for extra income; the plates are then sold through fairtrade organisations. You can buy a pack of 20 for £4.99 at Ganesha
