Note: The Need-a-Bag? project was created to promote sustainable bagging at the Hwy 441 Alachua County Farmer's Market each Saturday morning. We supply reusable tote bags reclaimed from thrift stores and garage sales. The Need-a-Bag? project also utilizes old tank tops as tote bags by sewing up the bottoms (these are called t-totes). We invite you to read the other posts on the project by clicking the "Need-a-Bag? Project" label at the bottom of this post.
Of course, the one time I don't bring my camera, and we have a Need-a-Bag? project miracle! We were low on bags; I had dug into my stash of polyprop bags to add to the paltry amount we had, but knew it was not going to be enough. And then, to our great surprise, there were about TWENTY bags hanging on the fence when we arrived. I kid you not! I don't know who put them out, but they are a Need-a-Bag? project Angel! Bags were bestowed and multiplied and all shoppers were sated with their tote bag needs, and it was good!

Hi! Interesting idea. Way to save the planet. :)
Skimming your posts, seems like you had problem w/drop box as trash bin. (not quite sure from last post if resolved). If not, my suggestion is large hook/s. If ppl ARE dropping off bags, bags will have a handle that can hang. If it's trash, it's unlikely. :> [learned that in computer class, something called affordances.]
Luck to you!
Yes! Excellent idea! Thank you! I did so love complaining about the drop box being used as a trash bin, though...
The CarbonTwin project was created to promote free exchange of Carbon Offsets between members who simply share their carbon offsets (for no compensation!) with members with higher carbon footprints.
