5 out of 5 starsI've bought a couple different bread bags (from other sellers) and this bag definitely keeps the bread fresh and is my favorite one! I will be buying more of these!

5 out of 5 starsThe person that made the potato bag, Marria, is excellent with a sewing machine. Her stitches are even and impeccable. The whole bag is beautifully made. The pattern matched what I received in the mail. My expectations for the item was really magnificent. The delivery was slow but that wasn't Marria's fault.

Eco zero waste foodsafe reduce plastic in the kitchen
Hi, my name is Marria, I live in Winnipeg, MB Canada with my husband, and our rescue Beagle, Momo. I’ve always loved to sew and started this venture out of personal need for vegan reusable, easy care, solutions. Thank you for supporting hand made and choosing to reduce waste.
Our shop helpers include, Jessie, who cuts 95% of our products out of bolts of fabric. Jessie fits her cutting time in between the comings and goings of two young boys. She uses her earnings to pay for private school tuition. Emily, is a full time Sewist and in warmer months a vendor at outdoor markets. Emily first started with PH when she was a full time student. Her love for sewing is evident in everything she does. Our other main helper, Adaelia, is our pro package maker. She loves a paper cutter! She is also a fulltime student and mostly volunteers for PH to keep her hands busy when she needs a break from all the pre-med classes.
Last, but not least, Earl (Mr. Practical) is our graphics and packaging designer. His expertise has opened the world of wholesale to us as we can offer packaging that a retailer requires including UPC's.
