No More Brown Bagging It

Natural/organic brands Annie’s Homegrown, Stonyfield YoKids, Honest Kids and Seventh Generation have joined forces to enable families replace their brown bags this back-to-school season with free Kids Konserve lunch sacks when they buy participating products through Sept. 30.

Consumers can visit Annies.com/bts11, print out the form, and then mail in proofs of purchase of all four brands. Eligible products are any Annie’s Homegrown item, Stonyfield YoKids Organic Yogurt 6-packs or Squeezers, Honest Kids Organic Drinks 8-pack carton or 64-ounce bottle, and Seventh Generation Disinfectants (sprays or wipes)

“We know lunches packed at home with real food are delicious, healthy options for kids,” said Aimee Sands, marketing director at Napa, Calif.-based Annie’s. “However, we also recognize that using new brown or plastic bags each day leads to unnecessary waste. …[T]his back-to-school promotion … provides an easy way for families to reduce waste and be rewarded for trying a selection of products the whole family will enjoy.”

Available while supplies last with a limit of one per customer, reusable the lunch sacks from Phoenix-based Kids Konserve are made from recycled cotton and can also be used for packing family picnics or portable snacks.
