FAQ
What are potato sacks made of?
Potato sacks are made from a woven burlap fabric, which comes from jute plants. Jute is used to make sacks and bags because it is one of the strongest natural vegetable fibers available, it is resistant to heat and weather, and is eco-friendly since it biodegrades. In fact, It is so strong that it is commonly used as a natural rope source.
How long will potatoes last in a burlap sack?
Potatoes should last 6 months in a burlap sack. That's because burlap is a breathable fabric, which allows the potatoes to stay fresh. The most important thing to ensure that your potatoes won't spoil is to store them in a dry, dark, cool area such as a pantry. It's also important that you do not store your potatoes too closely to other produce that will cause them to ripen too fast, such as onions and fruit.

Great Service!
My two orders have been shipped without delay to the east coast. Thank you Sandbaggy!
18" x 30" Burlap Potato Sacks
I did a "MacGyver" here using these sacks, loaded with sheep's wool as insulation to the tops of Layens Beehives for this upcoming winter. One sack covers about 85% of the area I need sewn at the end. For the remaining area , I stuff and roll more wool in another sack. Suits my need famously. Thx
Looks great

Burlap for mangroves
I like that it’s biodegradable. I used them to hold the mangroves and soil in between rocks to prevent them from erosion and washing away. It’s a trial but so far so good.
