West Seattle Summer Fest Continues Its Green Commitment

The West Seattle Junction Summer Fest remains dedicated to a greener festival, one year at a time. We will be partnering with Seattle Public Utilities and Bold Reuse to bring completely sustainable and reusable drinkware and dishware to the event.

The number one goal for this program is to promote sustainability in West Seattle and leave a long-lasting impact on the neighborhood. By turning West Seattle’s biggest event of the year green, we hope that the guests will follow suit and continue to cut down on waste. Additionally, we expect that guests will have a smile on their face as they have fun at Summer Fest while they help the environment.

By continuing with reusables, the festival is turning dozens of pounds of waste into materials that can be used for other products. Further, by going reusable, you are saving water and lowering carbon emissions. The environment is giving us a massive stamp of approval.

Best of all, this is the only major festival in Seattle that has gone completely reusable. We hope to set an example for other neighborhoods and help turn the city green.

To join the initiative, be on the lookout for marked bins stating, “Return reuse items here.” Simply drop off your reusable cups, plates and utensils and go about the rest of your day in peace.e
