IT'S A
BAG BAN CELEBRATION! Yesterday, Homer voted to give this SINGLE USE PLASTIC BAG BAN another try! I was actually pleasantly surprised by the wide margin of YES votes. The unofficial results from the City of Homer website are 748 yes and 406 no. Another try? Yes, we would have been the first city in Alaska to ban single use plastic bags and we even voted yes on it a few years back. But, Homer is a unique Alaskan community of strong-minded people with diverse views, opinions, and lifestyles so when important things come up for a vote it can get a bit difficult and unpleasant.
Sustainable Wares wants to thank all who work hard and in a kind/respectful manner to get SINGLE USE PLASTIC BAGS BANNED in Homer and all communities!
Shop Sustainable Wares in Homer or online and receive a FREE REUSABLE BAG! Starting now and ending Saturday, October 5 you will receive a FREE REUSABLE BAG with your purchase of $25 or more. No codes or special mentions necessary. Only one bag per person, please respect our small business budget.
