Created by Savannah-based graphic designer Jelani Prew, this produce bag design makes a beautiful display with a re-imagined grocery bag. The [produce packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/compostable-packaging-concept) is characterized by its [transparent sides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maria-olhovnikova) and understated labels in natural earth tones.

Putting the emphasis on the bright colors and [vibrant freshness of the product](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cooper-street-snacks), these bags showcase the customers purchases in a way that recalls the experience of a traditional farmer's market at which they wrap up the items in brown craft paper.

Notably, the produce bags are emblazoned with a loud reminder to reduce, reuse and recycle, which is likely given how cool the bags are. A great way to put the emphasis back on the appearance of the product, its a great reminder that if it isn't brightly colored, it probably isn't fresh.
