Food Lion pushes green products

Daily Staff Report

In celebration of Earth Day, Food Lion is featuring in-store displays with eco-friendly products.

Customers can also receive Food Lion’s free Home & Earth brochure. The brochure is also available at www.foodlion.com/Health-Wellness/Home-Earth.

With the focus of “a healthier planet begins at home,” the brochure features food safety tips, a Healthy Home scorecard, ideas for going green and coupons for environmentally friendly products.

Customers can also purchase any Clorox GreenWorks cleaning products, Scott’s Naturals paper products or Brita products and receive a free Food Lion reusable bag while supplies last.

The new bag is water-resistant and approximately 35 percent larger than Food Lion’s original reusable bag. It can carry up to 50 percent more weight and has longer handles, making it easier to carry on the shoulder. The new bag also contains two inner pockets for carrying large beverage bottles.

The new bags, featuring a nature-inspired theme, will also be available for purchase at 99 cents each.
