Planning a Sustainable Dinner Party: Cloth Napkins and More

Sustainable dinner parties are a great way to show your love for the environment and have fun doing it. While many people assume that throwing a sustainable dinner party simply consists of using local and organic ingredients at your next hosted dinner, there is so much more to it than that. Reusable, sustainably made dishes, utensils, and napkins not only add class to any dinner, but minimize your environmental footprint. These eco-conscious dinners offer a fun, tasty, and effective way to convince your nearest and dearest to go green through the persuasive power of a good meal. Learn how to plan your own sustainable dinner party with environmentally friendly cuisine, cloth napkins, and more today.

Crafting Your Menu

The first essential to any dinner party highlighting responsible agriculture is eco-friendly eats. Consider these tips:

• Get ingredients from local gardens, farmers’ markets, and other sustainable sources.
• Ask grocery stores for food that is safe to eat but will be thrown away, such as bruised produce or expired food.
• Moderate how much meat and dairy you include in your meal.
• Eat any leftovers later that week!

Sourcing Sustainable Dishes and Utensils

The next step in planning for your sustainable dinner party is to source sustainably made dishes, silverware, and napkins to accompany your meal. If you need disposable items, there are a number of companies online that offer plates and utensils made with sustainability in mind. You can also check out local shops and artisans to supply the tools your guests will need to enjoy the feast you’re preparing for them.
