Hey earth muffins! As the leaves turn golden and the air becomes crisp, there’s no better way to embrace autumn than by hosting a fall harvest party. These parties seem to be the feature of every fall Hallmark movie… So why not throw a fun party for all of your friends too?! Keep reading for the top tips for throwing the best eco-friendly fall harvest party this year!
Top Tips for Hosting a Sustainable Fall Harvest Party:
- Opt for digital invites – To invite guests to your fall harvest party, choose to send digital invites or create an event on Facebook to share all the party details. There is no need for any paper invitations!
- Use decor you already have (or ask guests to bring some as well) – Decorate with fall decorations you already have around the house… Bonus points if these were purchased secondhand! If you think you need more decor, ask guests to bring some decorations as well. Or, use natural materials like pumpkins, gourds, and/or leaves.
- Only use reusable dishware and cutlery – There is no need for any single-use plastics at your party! Instead, choose to use real dishes, drinkware, silverware, and fabric napkins.
- Serve a plant-based menu! There are plenty of tasty fall vegetables to serve during your party.
- Have bins for trash, recycling, and food waste – Set up clearly marked containers so that guests can easily sort their waste before leaving the party. Make sure the proper things are recycled and food waste gets tossed into the compost bin.
- Include fun, low waste activities – Organize fall-inspired activities like bobbing for apples, pumpkin carving, or a photo booth station near a leaf pile. Get creative!
- Stream some fun fall movies! – Play some Hallmark movies or your favorite autumn films to keep guests entertained.
Hosting an eco-friendly fall harvest party not only allows you to celebrate the season in style but also demonstrates your commitment to sustainability. By making conscious choices during the planning process, you can create a memorable AND environmentally responsible event that leaves a positive impact on both your guests and the planet. How do you celebrate fall with your family and friends??
