"The launch was very positive and we received good feedback," she said.
"The bags were designed by students from St James here in Yamba and it's great to have locals, especially children, involved with their production.
"Hemp bags are a better alternative for the environment as hemp requires less water to grow and a hemp bag has a lifespan of 20 years.
"We can't fix all the environmental problems in the world but we can make a start in our own backyard."
