Shoppers going to Boney’s Bayside Market (155 Orange Ave.) no longer need worry if they forgot their reusable shopping bags. Emerald Keepers has taken the concept of the Little Free Libraries and applied it to reusable bags.

Emerald Keepers volunteers have supplied the library’s initial stock of shopping bags, but the program depends on community member contributions. Check your cupboards if you have extra reusable bags and drop them off at the Free Library.
