TRASH REDUCING TIP: DID YOU KNOW YOU DON’T HAVE TO USE PLASTIC BAG VEGETABLE BAGS WHEN YOU SHOP?

Yesterday I asked the community to share with me their trash reducing ideas and experiences.  The first tip came from our very own Finance Department employees, Sheri and Michelle. At this point we are no stranger to cloth bags instead of plastic, but what about produce bags.  Fruits and vegetables are usually placed in a plastic bag before you even get to the check out counter.  Sheri has a great reusable alternative to this.  She purchased reusable produce bags online. They come in different shapes and sizes and best of all they are washable. Thanks, Sheri for the excellent idea.  I appreciate the support and effort to help Lincoln City reduce its overall trash production.  Keep the ideas coming!
