How do you combine fashion, practicality, and sustainability into one product? You recycle old rain jackets into grocery bags!
Welcome to the next evolution in social responsibility through environmentally safe and friendly alternatives to plastic.
My intentions are to increase awareness around the use and waste of common, plastic grocery store bags, and to hopefully change our old bag habits.

I have lived in the bay area for over 14 years working in education, technology and healthcare. I recently finished a degree in Non-Profit Business Administration at USF. I started City Bag Trade over a year ago in response to the plastic bag ban.
I grew up sewing, my mother made all of our clothes as kids. It has only been recently that I have found the time to delve back into it.
I want to try and make the community around us better, while being creative and using my hands. I also want to be involved in a project that has a political impact.
