List of eco-friendly rakhis to make Raksha Bandhan special:

These rakhis are handmade and handpainted. They are designed by seed paper India and the kit comes with plantable seed, coco peat/organizer fertilizer, and coco pot planter. The kit is also made from recycled paper and can germinate in 4-6 weeks. Last year this company sold over 8,000 rakhis to domestic and international customers.

Every seed rakhi is made from indigenous cotton and they are naturally dyed and then converted into handcrafted bands embedded with organic seeds. Even the wrapper is plantable. You can order them from pureecoindia.com

The clay rakhis are made by Abhika Creations and they contain special seeds of Vince Rosea. They come in a biodegradable pot and a packet of soil.

BySimta offers rakhis with cabbage seeds and roli and rice for tilak. Going back to roots in this time is an innovative idea.

The brand Ba No Batwo earlier challenged the traditional way of rakhi by making plantable rakhis and now they have gone one step forward. The founder has designed gender-neutral plantable rakhis that all genders can buy. So yes now brothers can also tie rakhis to their sister because after all sisters are their strength.
