All food service supplies at the SalmonAID Festival will be biodegradable. Our cups will be recycled. We're composting all organic waste and making soil. It's better still if you supply your own plate, cup and utensils! Please bring your own cloth napkin, a reusable canvas bag for shopping convenience, and own water bottle for free water refills.
