]]> Ouroots is partnering with the earth because reusing and recycling plastics is not enough!
Just like we grow food, we can naturally grow our products. Just like our ancestors did before plastic was invented.
These biodegradable and reusable drinking straws are grown  from the Luseke Grass: a wild grass found in Africa, designed and crafted by nature, used by ancient Ugandan tribes as drinking straws since hundreds of years.
