- This is a patent-pending, trademarked product. You are joining the process of bringing the compostable vase to market in the USA and beyond! This is not a concept and the intellectual property is protected. Thank you for respecting years of work to arrive at this exciting moment!
- Barnswallow recognizes that your participation is critical in the development of this product. Therefor, the vases will be sold at cost with no markup. We truly value your participation if you can make the time.
- Prototype 1.0 will be available until we have satisfied date needed for the Beta test. There is no limit to purchase; order the product per our availability. If you need availability updates or foresee a large order over 500, please call or email!
- Vases and lids are available in lots of 25, 50 and 100. Vases and lids come together and are not sold separately for the Beta test. Lids will be pre-cut in Barnswallow patterns. Further modifications are explained in the video tutorial.
- Shipping costs will apply at reduced Shopify UPS rates and include boxing materials and handling. Please note that P.O. Box addresses cannot be used for UPS shipments.
- Part of this process is data gathering! You can immensely help us through the completion of the welcome questionnaire and the final survey. Since the final questionnaire is vast and detailed, we suggest working on it through your vase journey.
- No experience is necessary! We welcome all.

Prototype 1.0 Utilizes the Eco-Choice Brand for Partnership.
With full disclosure, we are utilizing Eco-Choice products for this Beta test. Eco-Choice is not a floral product development company. However, we are using their products for testing because it’s readily available and 100% compostable. Purchasing directly through Eco-Choice does not support this project, so please direct all purchasing through Barnswallow at this time.

Failure is a Part of the Process. This is a Learning Experience.
This experience is meant to build the product’s viability long term. So if you’re not satisfied, we want to know why. We cannot change what we do not know! Please keep an open mind. When open to possibility, creational magic seems to willingly follow.

Kindness Goes a Long Way!
If we don’t return communication right away, it’s because we are busy farming and running our business just as you. Hang in there with us and let’s collaborate in a professional, kind manor.
.
Good Things Take Time.
It’s possible for your vases and lids to take 1-2 weeks to process and ship. However, we have been able to ship within 1-2 days of ordering as of late. If there is a delay, we will keep you updated. Feel free to send an email and inquire!
