Finally, a way to avoid accumulating all of those plastic produce bags! Why fill up your reusable shopping bag with dozens of single-use plastic fruit and vegetable bags that often get tossed right away and rarely get reused? Here's a smart solution to cut down on another major source of plastic bag waste.
Design & functionality
The large size lightweight, muslin cotton bags are bigger than the standard plastic produce bags found in most grocery stores – great for oranges, broccoli and other leafy vegetables. The smaller size is great for a few pieces of fruit or small vegetables. Used with our
produce savers you can save money as you help the environment by dramatically increasing the shelf life of your fruits and vegetables.
Also great for grains and other bulk products; to replace single-use baggies for use with dry snacks, nuts and lunch items; and as all-purpose gift or party favor bags. Alton Brown of The Food Network's Good Eats featured these handy bags to cook stuffing in on a Thanksgiving episode!
FYI

Materials
Organic cotton is a far superior alternative to chemical-laden conventional cotton. More and more farmers around the world are growing cotton without costly, harmful chemicals. Their yield is high and the quality of the cotton they grow is equal to or better than conventionally grown cotton. Their methods support biodiversity and healthy ecosystems, improve the quality of soil and often use less water.
Sustainability
Growing organically takes more time, requires more knowledge and skill, and, at least for now, costs a bit more. But it is worth it since it doesn't contain any hidden costs to our environment. This bag can help you eliminate thousands of plastic bags over its lifetime. Our wide range of reusable bags are also built to last, which saves both money and natural resources.
