Kids Konserve reusable lunch bag

We still have a few days to go before the school doors open for business and my list of “things to do” continues to grow.  High on the list is investing in a few quality reusables for school lunches. We have quite a few, but after years of wear and tear (think lots of crushed carrots and blueberries) there are a few that are ready to be replaced. If your are in the same boat then this GIVEAWAY could help you out.

  1. We use some of the Kids Konserve containers. The round stainless ones are great for applesauce and yogurt. They’re easy for kids to open and close, so that means less mess!

    Last year, my son did a presentation on Waste Free Lunch at his school and showed reusable containers are better for the planet and how you can save money by not buying all the individual pre-packaged stuff (which is usually not all that healthy – right?)

  2. I have an 11 year old with autism and it has been difficult to find eco friendly products for her to use. She reacts to most processed foods, artificial colors and flavors and manufactured products including the plastics in many containers. This would be4 a great product to use for her lunches.

  5. Great giveaway! For eco-friendly lunches, we reuse the same fabric lunch “box” and food containers year after year.

  8. Always looking for new ways to make school lunches eco friendly and recycling easier! Thanks to Groovy Green Livin for giving me awesome ideas 🙂

  9. I don’t buy the prepackaged snacks. Too much waste, and it is cheaper to bag up snacks myself.

  10. Joe has used his lunch bag that he made in first grade :). We also put our lunches in the empty bread bags and reuse other sacks as much as possible. Nothing grand, but little things make the world go round.

  12. I was a big zip lock bag Mama and then I realized how many bags I used in the school year and was shocked! I bought little containers to have John bring in his snacks and lunch and they actually come back home! I think it’s very important to start being “green” at a young age.

  13. How we make our lunches eco friendly? No meat! Reduce, reuse, recycle. I’d love to composting at the schools, though!

  14. I send reusable containers in my daughter’s lunch box. I have also been buying fewer of the individual pre-packaged snacks.

  16. Kristina-I removed your address from your comment. If you win I’ll ask you for it in a private email 🙂 Thanks for entering the giveaway!

  18. My son is looking forward to bringing tomato soup to school in his new stainless steel container (from reusit)!

  19. When my kids bring their lunch to school they use reusuable lunch boxes, and Tupperware/Rubbermaid to hold all the different parts of their lunch. And when I put in a plastic spoon for yogurt/fruit/etc. I remind them NOT to throw it away so we can wash and reuse!

  21. I use the reusable bag n sometimes I even send lunch from homemade– great gift, hope I’m the lucky one :))

  22. I use old fashioned waxed paper to wrap sandwiches, dry snacks, and cut veggies. A twist of the ends holds it all together, and spread out it makes a clean eating surface. Plus, it degrades very quickly.

  23. i reuse baby food glass jars to put snacks (nuts,cereal,dried fruit) in DDs lunch. ..and salad dressings so the broc. gets eaten;) also use stainless steel bento boxes for said broc and sandwich!

  24. We always include a fruit and veggie and a whole wheat sandwich, every single day! We also use our eco-friendly containers and pack only water! Great contest Lori! Love KK!!!

  31. I pack always my lunches in steel or glass containers and water in stainless. My family thinks I am nuts; they belong to the “ziplock squad” and the “plastic water bottle troop”!

  36. We make our lunch eco friendly at MOMables.com by using left overs, packing them in re-usable containers and advocating that parents make lunch with fresh ingredients and not packaged/processed foods.

  38. I send foods that do not need to be wrapped like apples and bananas. I also send sandwiches in washable plastic containers.

  41. Lunch items are packed in reusable plastic containers and carried in resuable lunch bag. That goes for the kids school lunch and for the excursions I (the grandmother) take the kids on.

  47. I recycle all that I can from my lunch, like yogurt containers. I also take silverware to use and do not use and throw away plastic utensils.

  49. Love this giveaway! : ) We use LunchBots Stainless Steel Lunch Containers for my ds’ lunch and everything we eat is magically organic and GMO free! : )

    Thanks so very much for this fabulous give~away! : )

  53. I reuse the small margarine & yogurt containers with lids and use them in lunches. They are “free”, can be used several times there are no worries if they get lost, although my kids are good about bringing them home for recycling.

  54. I have small containers for lunch food, plastic yes, but I have reused them many, many times.

  63. I make lunches eco friendly by using a reusable lunch bag, glass or ceramic containers, cloth napkins and real silverware. And filling them with organic food!

  66. We use re-usable baggies instead of plastic baggies or food containers year after year.

  72. I make my lunches eco-friendly by not using any ziploc bags! Instead, I use reusable containers 🙂

  81. We use plastic and metal reuseable containers and silverware and metal refillable water bottles in a cloth bag. Leftovers go in compost when they get home.

  84. We make lunches more eco-friendly by using reusable containers and packing mostly organic foods.

  102. We have always used cotton lunch sacks, which we wash in the washing machine at the end of the week and hang out to dry on our clothesline.

  103. If I win I would give this to my daughter who does the following for her kids:
    uses a lunchbox with reusable containers instead of baggies along with buying organic fruits and vegetables and uses stainless steel water bottles.

  111. I use a stainless steel bottle for water for my son, and use a container-glass, when I can to send him food. I also use a cloth napkin and our stainless untensils.

  122. In 2nd grade, my daughter’s class decorated cotton sacks (given by teacher) and she uses that for snacks. We package most snacks ourselves instead of relying on individually packaged items.

  123. We always use reusable contains for everything – I’ve got lots of shapes and sizes.
