It was a great day for everyone. Clean river, fresh air, zero waste lunch. Earthware was proud to be a part of it.
The Calgary Stampede was walking the walk and talking the talk last week as they hosted their river clean-up. Not only were they picking up garbage, they hosted an amazing lunch and didn't generate any garbage. Earthware was on hand to collect the reusable containers and whisk them away for cleaning and sanitation, ready to serve another day. It's organizations like this that can #inspire a movement toward zero waste events. They also had their departments decorate a pot and they were then given a tree indigenous to Calgary to look after for the winter with plans to plant them in the spring. We loved everything about this event. Thanks for including us! ❤️ 🌎

EDMONTON WE ARE HERE! If you have a favorite food establishment, join our Choose Reuse movement and start requesting sustainable solutions like Earthware or support those who are doing their best to reduce waste. Go to earthware.me/our-providers to see who has already joined the cause addressing the single-use takeout container waste, including compostables, that end up in the landfill.
Our first #Edmonton "Choose Reuse" interview is out! 🌱 Meet Die Pie located in Oliver off 105 Ave. and 118 St. They've recognized a demand for sustainability in packaging among their customers.🍕 Their menu features vegan and vegetarian options, with a special mention to their unique fermented pizza crust. They have a beautiful space to sit and enjoy a piece of pie and a cocktail and they do a thriving takeout business with 65%-75% being takeout. Find out more about Die Pie and why they made the switch to Earthware. #Sustainability #VeganOptions #zerowastetakeout

We've got a solution! Earthware is offering event organizers options of reusable container programs to suit their needs. Closed loop systems that can be onsite deposit/return based with a free web-based app or onsite take-and-drop systems. Ask us more about it. These amazing cultural events provide so much joy for all of us, unfortunately they can also generate lots of waste. Now we can have our cake and eat it too, and reuse the plate it came on!
This case study highlights the Edmonton Folk Music Festival's decision to switch back to reusable options following backlash from festival attendees regarding environmental issues. #edmontonfolkfest #yegfolkfest #singleuse #reusable #zerowaste
