Growing Interest in Bamboo Products

One of the things I have noticed recently is the increase in products made from bamboo in a wide range of retail outlets - from the major retailers to the community markets.

There are several outlets at Eumundi Markets (Queensland)  - some not so easy to spot.  (Look for the clothing made from bamboo products - ladies fashions, so you may have to ask if there is no sign!)

I am surprised how many products are in K-Mart these days - just click on the link and search for "bamboo" and a number of items will come up.  Ikea at Logan and other Idea stores have some products - I have seen bamboo bowls there.

Coles and Woolworths stores also have a collection of items - kitchen utensils particularly.  Also don't forget to add some bamboo shoots (sadly they are only in cans in the supermarkets) to your stir fried vegetables and seek other recipes to use them.

Target, Big-W, Spotlight, some of the bedding specialists have a range of items - look for bamboo fabric chothes (ladies undies in Target and Big W), and so it goes.

Several years ago it would be impossible to find anything.  There are plenty of stores on line for bamboo products too.  Do a Google search and see what you can find - made from this wonderful sustainable, safe product.

Don't forget Howards either.
