About Camden Boomerang Bags
Boomerang Bags is a grassroots, community drive movement tackling plastic pollution at its source. Volunteers from all walks of life get together to make re-useable ‘boomerang bags’ using recycled materials, as a means to provide a sustainable alternative to plastic bags.
BAG-MAKING BEE
Boomerang Bags are reducing our reliance on single-use plastic bags by sewing reusable shopping bags from up-cycled fabric to be distributed in the local community at a low price.
Socialise and meet new people, Learn new skills, build the community, embrace culture. No experience necessary, sewing & non-sewing jobs are all involved.
Macarthur Boomerang Bags founder will sell a range of reusable bags starting at $2.00 to $40.00 for a custom made gift bag. Our bags are handmade by local volunteers using up-cycled fabrics, so they’re unique and environmentally-friendly.
Dreamtime Explorers has made a commitment to donate 30% of each sale back to local community charity organizations, which provides activities/ services to Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander people and Cultural groups in Macarthur.
