## Resource

West Seattle Summerfest just pulled off a major eco-win: it’s the first major Seattle festival to go fully single-use waste-free, using 65,000 reusable dishes that save vendors money and cut trash. Attendees simply drop off used items at purple stations, where volunteers handle the rest — dishes get professionally cleaned and returned for reuse. It’s smooth, convenient, and even fun, like dining at a restaurant. Vendors love it — slashing costs while boosting sustainability. And for guests? No more confusing compost vs. trash bins. This bold move isn’t just cleaning up the event — it’s setting a new standard for future gatherings, proving big events can ditch plastic without hassle.
