made by hand · made on purpose
Less plastic, one wrap at a time.
Nicole has spent the better part of a decade making beeswax wraps and watching them work — keeping food fresh, with each wrap lasting for years and quietly replacing roll after roll of cling film. Green Bee is everything she's learned, pressed by hand in Bend, Oregon.
Five ingredients.
No sixth one.
- 01
Organic cotton
Milled in North Carolina from US-grown organic fiber. Soft enough to fold, sturdy enough to wrap a watermelon half.
- 02
Real beeswax
Domestic, all-natural beeswax — nothing synthetic, nothing blended in. It's what gives every wrap its gentle grip and faint honey smell.
- 03
Damar resin
Adds the cling. Tree-derived, food-safe, and the reason a wrap remembers the shape of your bowl.
- 04
Jojoba oil
Cold-pressed. Keeps the wraps soft, antimicrobial, and folds nice instead of cracking.
- 05
Coconut oil
Adds a touch of pliability and a barely-there sweetness. Helps the wraps mold around odd shapes without protest.
what the years taught us
Five hard-won lessons, one ridiculous amount of beeswax.
lesson 01
The cotton matters
Tightly woven organic cotton takes the wax evenly and holds it. Cheap fabric flakes, cracks, and gives up early.
lesson 02
It's all in the blend
Too much wax and it cracks. Too little resin and it won't cling. Getting the balance right is most of the craft.
lesson 03
Care is everything
Cool water, mild soap, no heat. Treat a wrap that way and it'll keep working for years.
lesson 04
Small batches win
Pressing by hand means every single wrap gets looked at before it leaves the garage. No shortcuts.
lesson 05
Every wrap counts
One good wrap quietly replaces roll after roll of cling film. Multiply that by a kitchen, then a neighborhood.
“If you're reading this — thank you. Every wrap that goes out my garage door means a little less plastic in someone's drawer. That's the whole point.”
