Boomerang Bags is an initiative where communities make and share reusable shopping bags to reduce plastic use. It started in Burleigh Heads on the Gold Coast and has been quickly adopted both around Australia and overseas. For more information check out their website.
Kyneton Community House and Kyneton Transition Hub are jointly supporting this initiative in Kyneton.
Kyneton Boomerang Bags group has produced well over 4000 bags since starting about two years ago. Production is slowing however, and we need more volunteers. There’s no need for you to be able to sew as there are plenty of jobs for all ages and talents. Our volunteers are involved in sewing, cutting out, creating, delivering, organising, storing, donating and giving support. You can even just drop in and have a chat and share a cuppa as we enjoy extra company.
Stockists are:
- Aesops Attic
- Alter Your Health
- Kyneton Library
- Squishy Minnie
- Watts Fresh
