They are green produce- size bags that are perforated with tiny holes to let the ethelyne gas out , and keep your produce fresh MUCH longer. I've been using them for years, and HIGHLY recommend them. ( although the local local brand they used to carry at Paul's seems to have disappeared, and now all I can find is the "Debbie Meyers" brand.) I wouldn't get my CSA without them.
They come in packages of 20 bags for typically $10 , which seems high. But, 1) they really do extend the life of most vegetables and fruits by a long time ( Days to weeks) in your crisper and 2) they are reusable. When I've used what's inside, I just rinse them out, turn them inside out and stand them over a bottle. etc to dry. They last forever this way ( unless neglect to clean out the frig and you ended with complete mush inside one and can't stand cleaning it out ), so it's good for your pocketbook and the environment.
Here's a link ( but as I said they definitely carry them at two stores above and I'm sure many other places- including one vendor at Beargrass Farmer's Market last year):
