Insulating material with renewable resource component

An insulated cabinet structure comprising:

• an inner liner having a plurality of walls defining a refrigerator compartment;
• an external wrapper having a plurality of walls defining a refrigerator compartment receiving area;
• an insulation gap formed between the walls of the inner liner and the walls of the external wrapper;
• a first insulation material positioned on a wall of the external wrapper and extending outwardly into the insulation gap to partially fill the insulation gap, wherein the first insulation material includes a renewable resource component having a particle size in a range from about 10 microns to about 25 microns;
• and
• a second insulation material provided in the insulation gap, wherein the first insulation material and the second insulation material together substantially fill the insulation gap.
