Eco-Friendly Birthday Parties: Quick Ecofriendly Food, Party Favors, Invitations, Birthday Ideas

We are always looking for new ways to make birthday parties more eco-friendly.  Here are some ways to get started with planning an eco friendly birthday party.
1. Keep it small. Less travel and a smaller space will give you more quality time with friends and family.
2. Provide delicious homemade food. Since you’re cooking and baking for a smaller group, the menu wont be too overwhelming if you plan in advance.   Plus you’ll get to enjoy better quality food without all of the packaging.
3. No single-use serveware. You can find durable, inexpensive serveware with any color or theme. With reusable plates, bowls and flatware, you can use this set again and again while minimizing waste.
4. Use the Web. Take advantage of invitation software such as Evite that will help you manage guest responses, rather than mailing paper invitations.  Having a gift registry online is also a great way to leverage the Internet for your party.
5. Give meaningful favors. We love craft or cooking parties because there is always something to take home. Rather than distributing something your guests won’t really use, give them a meaningful memento of the special day’s experience.
