Zero-Waste Market Bee Joyful Opening in Kalamazoo
Coming soon to the Kalamazoo Mall is Bee Joyful, Michigan's first zero-waste market. What makes this store unique? They craft and use Bee Joyful food wraps to replace plastic cling wrap and produce bags. Plus, they will be sourcing products from individuals and small businesses who share their mission to create and sustain positive environmental impact.
According to her mission statement on Bee Joyful's Facebook page, owner Jessica says, quote:
The journey from Etsy shop, to wholesaling, to a small work space and now to our own Zero Waste brick and mortar location has been an amazing one! We will be offering plastic free alternatives to the items you most commonly use for personal and home care. We strive to keep packaging material coming into the store a bare minimum, using 100% recycled materials and zero plastic going out to customers.
Bee Joyful is set to open at 243 S Kalamazoo Mall, Kalamazoo MI 49007 on April 3rd.
