We are dedicated to using natural, compostable, recyclable, reusable and plastic-free materials whenever possible. This includes our shipping fill. We use a 100% compostable fill made from vegetable starch called Renature. It dissolves in water. Immediately. No styrofoam or plastic air filled bags here. And while we’re on the subject, our delicious dates are also packed in natural kraft, plastic-free paper boxes. No window, no problem. Trust us, we sell the good stuff.
Want to entertain your kiddos? Add water to the peanuts and watch them dissolve!

Love the fact that you guys are packaging with post consumer recycled cardboard boxes when everyone else is packaging in plastic. I noticed that quickly at Whole Foods and led to my purchase. Great dates too!
Joan Smith
Thank you Scott! We love to hear your feedback!
Patricia Goodridge
Are the packing peanuts beneficial to the soil when composted in a vegetable garden?
Jamie Sines
Thank you for using environmentally-friendly shipping materials. I know you can donate unwanted packing materials on BoxGiver. Hope this helps!
Joan Smith
Thanks for the tip Jamie!

I’ve always bought dates on Amazon.com, and they’ve usually been of very good quality. However, my most recent order was disappointing—the dates were very dry and looked old. Because of this, I’ve decided to start buying directly from you, since your products have always been fresh and of excellent quality. Thank you for maintaining such high standards!
