The Solano Avenue Association values Planet Earth.
Large scale events require large scale clean-ups. The SAA has a contractor that we work with to help “green” our events:
Here are some recommended resources:
Government Resources:
- Albany: Zero Waste Alameda (PDF)
- Berkeley: Single-Use Foodware Rules
When registering for the Solano Avenue Stroll, participants agree to the following “zero waste” statement:
We provide compost and recycling facilities throughout the event, and will prohibit the use of non-compostable bags and throw-away foodware items by all vendors, except where necessary for health and safety or due to supply chain constraints. PLEASE NOTE: corn and sugar-cane based plastic foodware is not compostable in this region. We suggest bamboo, wooden, or paper foodware whenever possible.
