Reusable shopping bags are better for the environment than single-use bags. For that reason alone, we want to help people switch from single-use paper or plastic bags to reusable bags. We also want to help people prepare for the
upcoming plastic bag bans in Kitsap County, Port Orchard, and Bremerton.
