Zero waste event is totally possible and should be the standard of the future

We love them healthy snacks from .hk and meals cooked with loooove by the organisers / kitchen crew!
🍓
Creating a zero waste event takes the same amount of time and planning as any other event. We just need to switch our mindset and welcome suppliers and team mates with the same sustainable vision.
🌳
Having an eco-forward venue such as that can provide fully working kitchen and reusable diningware also makes it solo much easier!
