I love the time of year when all of the local farmer's markets open and you can purchase fresh produce and other items from local businesses. We decided to head out to the Alpharetta Farmer's Market this past weekend to check it out and I was very surprised. We had been to this farmer's market one time before, but they recently changed the location and we wanted to check it out!
As we were headed out to the market I remembered my new market bag, from Apolis, had recently been delivered and I thought this would be the best time to try it out! Before I tell you what I thought about the bag, let me tell you what made me decide to purchase this market bag:
1. The bag is customizable! If you know me, you know I love to add a little personalization to everything I do! So when I could customize this bag to what I wanted, I was sold!
2. The quality of this bag! This durable bag is made to last at least 8 years and carry over 100 lbs! I don't know about you, but a lot of my reusable bags have not lasted this long and do not carry this much weight!
3. The bag is water resistant! The interior of the bag is lined, so it's easy to wipe clean, spills are not a problem!
4. Your purchase helps break the poverty cycle! If the three other reasons weren't enough to order this market tote, this one is the selling point! The mothers who handcraft your bag receive Fair Trade wages, annual profit dividends, and a retirement fund!
The totes come in a variety of sizes and options for you to choose from. They range from $48-$88 (the one I have is $68)! Now that I've given you all the details about the bag, let's look at it a little closer!
I received so many compliments about this tote while I was at the Farmer's Market and it was a fun way to also speak to people about the bag and my blog! I think this bag would be a perfect gift for yourself or to buy for the holidays! So if you are a family member of mine, and are reading this post, don't be surprised if you get a market tote for Christmas!
