Hip Mountain Sister Review: 3 Tier Tiffin & Organic Lunch Sack

This summer our family of four has been getting back to simplicity- simple food grown around the corner, simple crafts made from our recycling bin, simple playing in the dirt summer fun. But as summer is coming to an end, I know my summer of having nothing much to do is ending too, which means we have to have things in place to make our transition back into jobs and school more...simple.

One stress we seem to run into each year is lunch. Oddly, it's rarely the food that stresses me out, but rather how my family will transport said food to school and work safely. Yes, safely! So, I have been looking and looking for a way to replace our lunch boxes with something that can't be recalled for lead paint, for something that doesn't have that "plastic" smell, for something that isn't impossible to clean. I've also been looking for more easy ways to send my family with healthy lunches (you know- maybe not PBJ everyday) while avoiding plastic containers and the endless supply of plastic bags a family of four can go through. My husband, young daughter, and I can take glass containers, but I've been looking for something a little safer for my five year old, who like many a five year old, likes to swing things and often has fingers that let things fly.
We recently found a wonderful online store called Hip Mountain Mama. I purchased a number of things I'm not sure I'll ever be able to live without, and connected with the owner, Suzy, because her products were just too good not to write about and share! We're really excited today to be reviewing two of our favorite items- the organic canvas lunch totes and the three tier tiffin sets. They are exactly what I have been looking for!

Organic Canvas Lunch Totes
store flat (which I love),

hold A LOT- like a dinner for four, poolside,


and can be decorated (fabric marker style) to suit the needs of little people who love, love, love to make things their very own.

The Three Tier Tins

are also easy to store, and can be quickly modified to fit the needs of any meal.
(For our dinner at the pool- I filled both bottom containers with dinner- potato/green bean salad- and the little container with cream cheese for our zucchini bread- YUM!- The salad was still warm and the cream cheese still cold- two hours later when we ate).
And what's great about both these products (besides the fact there is NO paint, NO funky chemical smell, and they are cinch to clean) is...


one fits in the other,


and they are just FUN!
To show you just how fun and easy to use they are, here is Clark, who will be taking both tin and tote to Kindergarten in a couple weeks- SIGH...

We, Sages, know you will love visiting and shopping with Hip Mountain Mama! Hip Mountain Mama's products are good for your family and the environment. Plus, by taking care of your family, you'll be helping another family take care of each other, and they'll be helping other families take care of each other, and...really how simple and beautiful is that!
