Inspired by the works of Kittie Kipper on Instagram  – chef Karen Barnaby wants to see the large red net bags in which onions enter commercial kitchens repurposed into beautiful new life beyond trash.

Twisting, stitching and coiling come immediately to mind… What can you think up?

Check out @kittiekipper on Insta for inspiration and find the amazing catbed coil stitched from ghost nets she cleans from the beach.

Folks in the lower mainland of British Columbia can arrange with Sharon to pick up from trillium park 1-4 bags to start their project. If you live elsewhere and want to try,  we encourage you to try your onion bags from home or connect with a local restaurant or community kitchen.

Post what you make on our earthand makers fb page
