Just say NO to plastic produce bags and hello to BYO Bags!

By DIY Maven


So you've switched from paper or plastic and gone to reusable grocery bags. If you haven't yet done so, it's now time to ditch non-recyclable plastic produce bags for something a bit more earth-friendly too. A great alternative to them are the fabulous BYO Bags. They’re made of a lightweight nylon mesh that’s not only breathable, but durable, washable, quick drying and, of course, reusable. I found my set of 3–one small, one medium and one large bag–at my local coop for 9 bucks, but you can order them from Cool Hats for just a buck more for shipping. That’s only 10 bucks to help reduce waste and save the planet. Not bad!

My only concern is if major grocery stores will take them, which is all we have around here.

BTW, a serger would be very beneficial if not mandatory for a DIY attempt.
