Wool Dish Sponges – Gives to the Wetland Initiative
Up your eco dish-washing game with this set of two dish sponges, handmade in New Orleans from 100% wool felt from South America. Proceeds are donated to The Wetland Initiative which works in restoring wetlands across the nation.
Wetlands are nature’s sponge and our wool sponges are an all-natural option for your kitchen. Wool is naturally antimicrobial, perfect for a sponge and it doesn’t shed micro-plastics onto your dishes and down the drain as plastic-based sponges do. In short, wool sponges are gentle on your dishes and the environment.

Care Instructions:
Clean in the dishwasher before initial use, it will shrink around 1/4″ overall. Wash in dishwasher as needed. Allow to dry between uses and it will shrink a little with use initially. Combine with a coconut, steel wool, or bamboo brush scrubby for dishes that need a more aggressive cleaning. Do not put in clothes dryer on hot, that shrinks wool objects into miniatures!
If you don’t have a dishwasher, soak in cold water with a light soap, and spot clean. To dry you can lay on a counter or out in the sunshine.
