Happy Memorial Day Weekend!

Every year we commemorate and remember the sacrifices and commitment laid down by our brave service members. We honor and pay respects to those that laid down their lives to preserve and protect our beautiful country & community.

As you gather with family and friends to celebrate this weekend, we’ve rounded up some sustainable tips to make your plans more Earth friendly. Check them out below!

1. Reusable containers - It's a great idea to pack reusable drinkware and food storage containers when you’re on the go! Planning ahead helps eliminate unnecessary plastic and with so many innovative products and designs for Ziplocs, collapsible boxes and thermal bottles, you can take your pick!

2. Eat more veggies - As BBQs around the country will be serving up burgers and other grilled selections, we recommend trying a plant-based patty! This is a great way to eat more plant-based foods and offers more variety at your gathering for vegan/vegetarian friends.

3. Make a list and stick to it - Grocery shopping becomes more efficient and economical when you plan for your festivities and stick to the list to the tee. This helps in cutting down on food costs and wastes.
