Why Choose Wheat Straws?
Our Natural Wheat Straws are made from the stems of wheat plants that would otherwise be discarded after harvest. By giving these stems a second life, we're creating a genuinely circular product that doesn't just reduce waste — it turns agricultural by-products into something useful.
Unlike paper straws that go soggy after five minutes, wheat straws hold their shape remarkably well. They add a subtle, earthy aesthetic to drinks and are a real talking point at dinner parties, BBQs and events. Each straw has its own character — slightly different in colour, width and texture — making every sip a connection back to nature.
When you're done, simply toss them in your compost bin or garden waste. They'll break down completely within weeks, returning nutrients to the soil. No microplastics, no chemicals, no guilt.
How to Use Your Wheat Straws
- Use straight from the pack — they're ready to go
- Best for cold and room-temperature drinks
- Great for water, juice, smoothies, cocktails and iced coffee
- Not recommended for very hot beverages
- Each straw can be used for 2-3 hours continuously
- After use, compost at home or dispose in garden waste
- Store remaining straws in a dry place
- For events, pop them in a jar or glass on the table — they look gorgeous
Tip: If you're using them for a party or event, wheat straws make a brilliant eco-friendly alternative to plastic. They look stunning in cocktail glasses and create a lovely rustic aesthetic.

"Absolutely love these straws!"
They're so much better than paper straws which always collapse. These stay firm in my smoothies and I love that they're completely natural. Already ordered my second pack.

We switched from plastic to wheat straws six months ago. Customers love them — they always comment on how unique they look. Great value too at this price.

"Good quality, lovely packaging"
Nice straws and I appreciate the plastic-free packaging. Only giving 4 stars because some straws were a bit thinner than others, but that's just nature I suppose!
