Thanks to Fran Dickinson who just wrapped her week-long instagram takeover today, for giving us the low-down on the Boomerang Bags Pemberton initiative, which launches official this Friday at the Pemberton Valley Grocery Store.

We’ve got a column in the pipeline all about it, but in the meantime, here’s Fran:

Boomerang bags are a reusable cloth bag initiative that will be available at the Pemberton Grocery store very soon. The idea is that you borrow some bags when you need them and then return them back to the store so others can use them. The goal: get rid of single use plastic bags in Pemberton!
