The outer shell of these stuffed animals is fabric made from 80% bamboo and 20% polyester. This creates a soft, natural toy with all the durability and washability needed to survive as a child’s companion.

Mary Meyer is a family business based in Vermont. They are proud to make sustainable choices in how they operate. (Such as, these toys were *not* packaged in plastic when I received them, and were shipped in a reused box. If we ship them to you wrapped in plastic to protect from snow and rain damage, rest assured we are reusing plastic bags, not purchasing new ones! We, too, reuse boxes to ship orders. It may not be "pretty" but as Mary Meyer says, what's really not pretty are landfills and clear-cut forests.) Mary Meyer's intention is to set a course for a more sustainable future. One that innovates with new materials. One that minimizes waste. One that recycles and maximizes use of recycled materials. (read more about Mary Meyer)
