2024 Green Initiatives

 

Help us be a greener Meadows Festival. We work hard to improve our environmental sustainability at the festival each year but we need your help! What can you do?

Keep an eye out for the 2024 Sustainable Stall Award!

Reducing plastic waste with Scottish Water

💧Help us reduce plastic waste at the festival and remember to bring your refillable water bottle to fill up from the tap! You can find Scottish Water tap on Jawbone Walk to refill and stay hydrated.

Minimising Food waste with The Shrub Coop

🌭We’re also excited to partner again with The Shrub Coop who are helping us minimise food waste by taking any leftover food from stall holders on Sunday evening. They’ll be donating this to charities, hostels and volunteers.

Reducing carbon emissions

🚴‍♀️We are partnering with Cargo Bike Movement again this year who have kindly lent us a cargo bike to reduce our carbon emissions. We’ll be doing our deliveries around the site using the bike and saving on carbon emission from vehicles. 

Celebrating the great work of our market traders’ on sustainability

🛒And of course our Sustainable Stall Award is back again for it’s 6th year! Who will be the winners….?! Find out on Sunday at midday 🥇
