Description

Arundo donax, or giant reed, is an invasive plant species that thrives around rivers and streams. Bad Grass creates consumer products thus promoting demand for Arundo biomass. By introducing a line of cannabis pipes that are strategically positioned between joints and pipes, we can attract customers interested in smoking out of disposable pipes. Since the pipes will be intended for a handful of uses, consumers will continue to purchase more. By reinvesting profits, Bad Grass will be help the environmental problem by putting money back into Arundo removal.
