Baggu's reusable produce bags may be the best thing to crop up this season.
These nylon mesh bags are extremely lightweight and durable, and feature a fold-over flap to help make sure your fruit and veggies stay put. And, when they're not in use, fold them up, secure with the attached elastic loop and stow them away with your Baggu grocery bags.
The best part? They'll help you keep plastic produce bags out of landfills.
Available from Baggu for $3 to $4.
