Earth Day: Eco-Friendly Fro-yo


Fro-yo girl here. Yes, it's Earth Day 2010 and it seemed like the appropriate time to recognize Bay Area shops that are using compostable cups and/or spoons for fro-yo. I hope that this list is accurate - if I've left any place out, I apologize. Next year I might follow-up with a list of fro-yo shops that still use styrofoam cups (the wall of shame).

The 2010 List of Eco-Friendly Fro-yo in the Bay Area:
* Blush Organic Frozen Yogurt, Burlingame
* Beautifull (all locations)
* Chile Pies
* Cowabunga Creamery
* Culture Organic Frozen Yogurt
* Fraiche
* Green Cup Frozen Yogurt
* The Mix
* Sweet Jo's
* Xanath
* Yogizmo
* Yogurt Harmony
* Yogurtland
* Zuckersuss

And the most eco-friendly award goes to: Culture Organic Frozen Yogurt in Palo Alto. They use compostable cups and spoons and sell reusable fro-yo cups. The store decor features recycled materials. They're also the only all organic fro-yo shop.

Did you know that Blush Organic Frozen Yogurt is in the 2010 Green Zebra coupon book? Get yours today.

You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.
