SAN ANGELO, TX — HEB will be celebrating Earth Day by giving away eco-friendly reusable bags to customers all across Texas. On Sunday, Earth Day, customers can visit local HEBs in town and receive a complimentary Earth Day bag, which is designed by a Texas artist and made from 80 percent recycled plastic bottles.
185,000 of these bags will be given out to customers around Texas. The firs bag is free, and shoppers have the option to purchase additional Earth Day bags for $1.50 each.
For the second year in a row, Texas artist Becca Borrelli, a former elementary school teacher who illustrates adult coloring books, designed the Earth Day bag. The design resembles pages from a coloring book and features the state of Texas surrounded by illustrations of environmentally friendly activities.
“H-E-B works year-round to educate our customers about ways to care for our environment – from recycling at home and donating to environmental nonprofits to grocery shopping with reusable bags,” said Julie Bedingfield, H-E-B Public Affairs Manager. “We’re pleased to share these colorful bags with our customers, and we hope it inspires them to make positive decisions that benefit our environment, making everyday Earth Day.”
So, go get your Earth Day bags tomorrow!
