THIS! This is wonderful! Way to go Bagette Barbara, spreading the fabric bag message to so many people. What a fun day at a lovely farmers market! Keep up the great work Barbara and I hope people follow up with you too! :) Teresa
I hope your wrist is healing, and that you are feeling better each day.
Here is a summer update from the Maine Chapter of the Green Bag Lady Project.
I gave away 90 Green Bag Lady bags at the Southwest Harbor Farmers Market on Friday. It was super fun talking to shoppers and then seeing them fill their new fabric bags with goodies from the farmers market vendors. Many bag recipients are local residents and shop owners, including the owner of a pizza shop, and the owner of a shop that rents E-bikes. A librarian from our local library took a stack of bags for library patrons. A woman who volunteers with a local fire department handing out produce to people in need of fresh food that is donated by local farmers took some bags. One man brought the bag I gave him last year. He was thrilled to get another bag this year to add to his collection. How cool is that?!!
Also, some folks expressed interest in helping make bags and/or donating fabric. I’ll see if anyone follows up with me. Enjoy!
