This organic cotton string bag from Turtle Bags is part of the new Botanics Range.  This is a long handled bag and is a great useful bags have all been dyed using natural, Mother Earth dyes in beautiful shades of Cocoa, Ochre, Spice and Sage all derived from pomegranate, flame of the forest and the madder plant.  These eco bags are great for popping in your handbags for everyday use (and wouldn’t they look perfect carrying your things to the beach!).  Turtle Bags are a great eco and sustainable brand founded by ecologist Beth Williams over twenty years ago.  She was aware of the damage caused by waste plastic finding its way into our oceans, acting as a sponge for chemical pollutants, helping to carry them into fish and then on to us.  Horrified by this prospect founder and ecologist, Beth Williams, wondered what she could do to raise awareness around her. How to create less waste, be mindful of our individual consumption and make small lifestyle changes to hopefully make a big impact? And so Turtle Bags was born, with a mission to raise awareness of this invisible problem and to offer alternatives to plastics which are kinder to both people and planet. Behind the brand Turtle Bags is a real passion for the planet!
