STORY

Never leave your dish at a potluck again! Your casserole will always stand out when its nestled in the colorful Casserole Basket 9x9. Natural and dyed kaisa grass in shades of dark blue, teal green and orange are wrapped in jute twine to create this square-shaped basket. Ethically handcrafted in small batches by environmentalist artisans with Prokritee, an organization in Bangladesh that provides jobs and skills training for women in under-resourced communities. Prokritee improves women's standard of living with safe jobs, fair wages, and the goal of self-reliance, helping mothers send their children to school to break the cycle of generational poverty. It employs women traditionally excluded from the market: widows, heads of households, rural poor, or landless without another source of income. They are experts at keeping waste out of landfills and waterways, using recycled sari, eco-friendly dyes, and their award-winning water-hyacinth paper.
