Calico Produce Collection care instructions; How they work & what to do:

  • Dry goods:place inside bag; Pull draw string shut, store in a dry place away from sunlight & heat.
  • Produce:place loose produce inside your Love Thy Earth (LTE) produce bags
  • Then hold under running water dowsing the entire bag with water.
  • Hold bag for 5 seconds allowing some of the excess water to drain out
  • Then place the produce bag (now completely wet) in the crisper section of your refrigerator – The fridge temperature can be more controlled here.
  • BAGS MUST REMAIN WET AT ALL TIMES
  • Do not overcrowd your crisper section, as sufficient airflow is needed to prolonging freshness of your produce.
  • If you chose to store your bags in sections other than the crisper section of the refrigerator (we do not recommend this), then it is advised that the purchaser must monitor their bags daily.
  • Due to many different fridge types, it is the duty of the purchaser to monitor their bags and produce daily.
  • Regular monitoring will assist in discovering what works best between your fridge type and your LTE produce bags.
  • Do not store overripe produce in LTE bags.
  • Overripe produce must be removed from bags immediately.
  • Always ensure that your LTE produce bags are wet
  • Wash / soak produce bags weekly. Note: LTE produce bag will present with speckled marks when wet (cotton seeds)
  • If necessary use mild soaking agents such as washing soda, a bi-carb / white vinegar solutions, natural oxygen-based soaking agents (chlorine free), with a splash of clove oil, which is a naturally antibacterial agent.
  • Adhering to these guidelines will keep your bags fresh and minimise incidences of mold.
  • If mold does occur, it is the duty of the purchaser to soak bags immediately. However if soaking does not remove mold, bags containing mold spores must be discarded.
  • Hang-dry LTE bags in sunlight, which is a natural antibacterial agent
  • Hang inside out to avoid fading.
  • Staining may occur over time form use.
  • Machine wash.
  • Wash away from colours.
  • Warm iron.
  • Do not tumble dry
  • Do not bleach.
  • Whilst produce bags are wet LTE recommend not pulling the drawstring shut, due to the natural materials used.
  • Please note that the drawstring mechanism will return back to normal when dry.
  • We have allowed for slight shrinkage in the design & manufacturing process.

These recommendations are used as a guide, which may vary due to appliance (fridge type). It is the purchasers’ duty of care to regularly monitor each bag/s and adhere to LTE recommendations for optimum results. LTE will not be held accountable for poor hygiene practice, negligence of recommendations and/ or care instructions.
