Recently Verterra dinnerware company and I got to talking about how their product
did not seem like any ordinary disposable plate.  I really wanted to learn more 
about this company.  I mean if they are using strong durable disposable plates and
bowls and more that are totally eco friendly and natural.  To think that a simple
way to green living can be to just change the types of disposable plates we use 
is fantastic.

This product is also compostable.  This means it rapidly biodegrades and disintegrates.
This releases nutrients into the soil, without leaving behind any toxic residues.
To be considered compostable, products should meet the ASTM Standards for plastics
and packaging.

After learning these terms I realized that this product is more than biodegradable.
According to all the studies they did on the product to meet certain standards, 
it was determined that a mixture of compost and [VerTerra](https://greenlivingguy.com/2016/06/how-to-bike-like-a-local-in-amsterdam/)
byproducts act as a fertilizer.  This will enhance plant growth signicantly.

## Not only did they say that VerTerra

Some great food on [Verterra](http://www.VerTerra.com) plates. Not a bad looking
plate for a party; right acts as a compost, but it also makes high-quality compost.

These 8 packs are located at Whole Foods stores and can go from $3.99 – $6.99 depending
on the product.  Now while it might not be for you just yet, the These 8 packs are

Now while it might not be for you just yet, the Dallas Cowboys use them (WHY NOT
THE NY GIANTS?), schools, restaurants, hospitals, food service agencies and more
are catching on.  This in my opinion will bring down the price in the future based
on quantities.  However, to think I can serve a party and get great compost for 
$7.00 at the most; not bad.
