Storage Instructions
Once opened, please store herbs in an airtight container, in a cool, dry place and away from direct sunlight.
The red dates are packed in a biodegradable plant-based cellophane. The reason why we chose NatureFlex over plastic. NatureFlex uses cellulose, which is one of the world’s most naturally abundant organic materials.
This means that you can easily home compost these bags and they will break down naturally over a very short time.
