take a bag, leave a bag
At the Winnetka Farmers Market
The Winnetka-Northfield-Glencoe Chamber of Commerce—in coordination with Go Green Winnetka—is collecting and distributing reusable grocery bags to people who want them at the Winnetka Farmers Market. If you have extra reusable bags/totes that you can donate to the cause, please bring them to the Chamber table at the Market this Saturday. Thank you!
