I love the versatility of baskets; great for toting produce from the farmer's market, but equally useful for ad-hoc storage around the house. Medina, a small family business based in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, is a good online resource for baskets and has been importing them since 1985. The baskets are hand woven in Morocco from sustainably grown palm leaf, water reed, and wild grasses.
