Produce packaging that puts the harvest on display.
Choose the format around your crop, portion, and display. Open baskets and hinged clamshells create different customer experiences. Compare the actual package with your produce before committing to a full season’s order.
These are the catalog’s listed sizes; actual fill depends on the crop and how it packs. Browse all fruit and produce containers and produce bags.

Bottles & jars: complete the package before checkout.
For cold beverages, compare these clear PET bottles with a 38mm OI neck finish. Caps are a separate item in the selections below.
For one case of 144 selected 16 oz bottles, order 144 individually sold matching caps if you need a cap for every bottle. A “38mm” description alone is not enough to match every closure; use the full neck finish.
Glass jars for your specialty food line

- 82-2040 Lug 12 oz Straight Sided Squat Glass Salsa Jars (12/Case)
- 70-450G 16 oz Universal Flint Glass Canning Jar (12/Case)
Shop caps and closures or ask us to help match a jar and closure. Confirm the complete packaging specifications for your filling and processing method; this selection is not a canning or hot-fill compatibility recommendation.
From the first sample to the takeaway order.

Give the whole purchase a way home.
Choose a shopping bag around the footprint of the filled package—not just the width of the product. Test the complete purchase, including stacked boxes or several jars, before standardizing your carryout bag.

Shop all rope-handle paper bags. For a branded presentation across market dates, explore custom printed packaging and design.
Plan the market day. Buy for the calendar.
Estimate packaging by the items you expect to sell, then total the markets you need to cover before your next replenishment. Count lids, caps, sample supplies, and carryout bags separately.
A simple planning example
If you expect to sell 60 berry packs at each of four markets, that is 240 clamshells. Adding a chosen 10% buffer brings the plan to 264. A 630-count case of the selected pint clamshells covers that estimate, with 366 left for later dates. This is a planning example, not a sales forecast.
Use this checklist while building your order. Checkmarks are temporary and do not add products to your cart.

Farmers market packaging questions
What packaging should I buy for a farmers market stand?
Start with what you sell: produce containers for berries and vegetables, bags or boxes for baked goods, bottles or jars with matching closures for packaged products, and takeaway containers for prepared foods. Add sample supplies, carryout bags, and cleanup items.
Are lids and caps included?
It depends on the item. The bottle selections above need separately purchased caps. The listed snap-fit portion-cup lids are also separate. Hinged-lid containers have attached lids. Check each product’s pack details before ordering.
How many cases should I order?
Estimate usage per market, multiply by the number of dates you need to cover, and add a buffer appropriate to your demand. Convert that total into the listed case quantity. Consider the storage space and cash tied up in extra packaging.
Can you help me choose a bag for my bakery box?
Share the filled box dimensions and whether customers usually carry one or several. Compare the bag’s base dimensions and test the complete order. Our bakery guide includes more boxes, boards, bags, and liners.
Can I get custom printed packaging?
Yes. Ask about custom design, printing, manufacturing, storage, and delivery. Send your preferred format, artwork, estimated volume, and locations so we can work through the options.
Bring the product. We’ll help with the packaging.
