Bronte Moon  Merino Lambswool Blanket  

Traditional Herringbone design re-created in 100% Merino Lambswool makes this soft and luxurious throw a desirable accessary for every home, back porch, outdoor sporting event, camping trip or wherever your life takes you.  Wool is a 100% natural, renewable and biodegradable fibre, which when combined with Abraham Moon & Sons commitments to zero waste, recycling and solar energy create a product of the highest ethical quality. 

Wool is hypoallegenic, resistant to bacteria, mold and mildew that can trigger allergic reactions in people.  Wool also has microscopic pores that respond effectively to changes in humidity preventing the growth and breeding of the house dust mite whose allergens are one of the triggers for asthma attacks.  Wool can easily absorb up to 30% of its weight without feeling damp or clammy. The ability of wool to absorb moisture makes it comfortable in both warm and cold conditions.  All of the mill's wool growers respect the Five Animal Freedoms.  All sheep are free range & pasture fed with the farms adhering to strict animal welfare codes.  The wool is fully traceable, quality inspected and sustainably scoured with zero bleach and eco-friendly detergents.  

100% Merino Lambswool is 100% biodegradable so you  can cut it into pieces and toss in your yard or compost bin (or use in your planters) when it can no longer serve it's purpose. If still in good shape when you no longer want it, please donate.

Handmade Seed Embedded Paper

The paper used to display the QR Code is handmade in Nepal by rural craftspeople in an environmentally friendly process with 50% recycled content.  The raw material in this paper is the  Daphne bush. It is farmed and harvested from 3-4 year old plants that are cut and stripped of bark.

recycled seed paper

The plant is not destroyed when cut down and it regenerates from the root.  The cane like stick, once the bark is removed, is dried and used to heat the villager's homes, as fuel for cooking and in the production of this paper.  All water used in the paper production is reclaimed and reused.  The bark is beaten by hand, boiled into pulp, mixed with recycled pulp & paper scrap collected from the card and envelope manufacturing process) then pored into screens to form sheets.  The sheets are then dried in the sun. The entire process is earth friendly and provides a community with a healthy enterprise.

We hope you choose to plant this paper and watch flowers bloom, but you may also recycle or compost it if that is better for you. Each sheet is embedded with seeds that will grow in North America.  Seeds in the paper include 10 annual and perennial species which tolerate partial shade, need 4 hours a day of direct sunlight, and grow to about 3 feet.  Seeds include Snapdragon, Petunia, Beardtounge, Daisy, Thyme, Poppy, Foxglove, Catchfly, Maiden Pinks, Chamomile.  If you plant this paper in a pot or in your garden please cover with 1/8" of soil to keep it moist until established; as germinating seeds and seedlings cannot survive even a brief drought.

Our Box is a Boox 

Booxes are made from corrugated polypropylene sheets, using a patent-pending design. Produced in the US from a combination of new and post-consumer polypropylene (#5 on the recycled plastics chart – PCR).  Boox has a goal to improve the post-consumer percentage over time, eventually getting to 100% PCR. They are also experimenting with material made from ocean plastics and other sources.  Boox chose polypropylene (PP) for a variety of reasons - It’s waterproof, tear-proof, and lighter than cardboard, while still being rigid and durable enough to protect products during shipping.
Save the Rock Box - Box by Boox.eco
Eack Boox box can be reused many times before reaching the end of life. But, at end of life, PP can be processed back into more Booxes efficiently.  Many people think of plastics as detrimental to the environment. Boox would like to encourage people to think differently about it - SINGLE-USE plastics (but really any single-use product) are bad for the environment and can end up in rivers and oceans where they don’t degrade for a long time. But, that same longevity can be put to great use if we can change the culture of consumption and shift towards the circular economy.   Scan the QR Code on the Boox to return it so it can be used again and again and again and again ...
