Fair trade market basket is handwoven from hand dyed elephant grass and comes with a sturdy leather handle. Each basket colorway is unique. Can be put to multiple uses, such as: a beach bag, carry-on or weekender, crafting or knitting caddy, farmer's market basket, grocery or shopping bag, hamper or laundry basket, handbag or tote, home decor basket, laptop carrier, picnic basket, pot planter, tabletop centerpiece, or for storage, to name a few! Elephant grass needs little water or nutrients, so can grow in otherwise uncultivated land. It improves soil fertility and protects against soil erosion and is used as part of a modern "push–pull agricultural pest management" strategy.
