Tired of dumping your produce grocery bags right after you get home? My friend Dora recently told me about these cool little bags that everyone keeps asking her about. These re-usable plastic mesh bags are great for fruits and vegetables. It sure beats stockpiling the somewhat useless plastic produce bags. Instead you can use these guys and re-use them when you go back to the grocery store.
Grassroots carries them (10 for $1.95). Grassroots is a great little local store that offers environmentally-friendly products. They have carefully sourced products that meet or exceed our environmental standards, respecting and observing fair trade, fair labour, and human rights practices. Grassroots has two physical locations, one on Bloor Street near Brunswick in the Annex, and a second store on the Danforth near Chester. They also have an online store.
