Abstract
A refuse bag holder having a central pole is adapted to be inserted into the ground. Connectable to the central pole is a loop. In the preferred embodiment the loop is made of three generally linear rigid members which are flexably connected to each other such that, when the the rigid members are connected to the central pole, the formed loop extends at an upward angle from the pole. The loop, and in some embodiments, a handle on the central pole, form the basis for securing the refuse bag so that it is kept open for easy use.
