Product DescriptionReduce, reuse, recycle...and reinvent the boring market bag! Made with 100% recycled rice and feed bags from Southeast Asia, it makes as much a conversation piece as it does an earth-conscious way to bring home the groceries.
These eco-friendly bags, originally used as transportation for rice or fish food in South East Asia, have been given new life by disadvantaged women and disabled workers in Cambodia! We salvage the recycled rice and commodity bags from various local markets, and then clean, gently dye and re-fashion them into a complete line of fun, funky and fashionable fair trade products. Eliminating landfill and recycling these bags helps keep our planet clean. And sewing helps keep our artisans working with regular employment; creating a better life for themselves and their families
