When you go grocery shopping, are you still using produce bags? Every year billions of produce bags are thrown away after one use. How wasteful is that? This is a great way for your to help save the Earth and isn’t a hard thing to do. We stopped using those flimsy produce bags years ago, instead we take our own smaller reusable grocery bags and fill it with our produce. Recently I have seen great reusable produce bags that are great colors and can be used over and over again. Sometimes, we won’t have enough reusable bags to put the fruit in so I will be investing in a set for myself. If only to keep the lemons from rolling all over in the back of my car. lol.
This weeks Earth friendly Etsian is Fickle Faerie. Fickle Faerie is owned by June, a mom to three grown up daughters who has been sewing for over 40 years. June makes reusable and biodegradable produce bags. So far, June has sold over 8,000 produce bags. She estimates that if each one of her bags was only used once a week for a year that 416,000 bags would be saved from the landfill and her goal is to reach 1 million bags saved this year. {applause}
June is offering ONE of my readers a fantastic set of 6 reusable produce bags in your choice of color.
