Here at Acorn Hog Roast we are expert caterers, providing professional party catering in County Durham and across the North East. Party season can be at any time of the year and you don’t always need an excuse to have a few friends round, enjoy each other’s company and have some delicious food! Whether you are throwing a dinner party, wedding or a birthday it’s time to start using eco-friendly options and do your part for the environment. Parties have been created for you to have a good time and they can be just as fun when using environmentally friendly products. To help you get started with your eco-friendly party take a look at our guidance below…

Party Décor

For every successful party you need your venue to be kitted out and looking the part. Decorations add to the event and take it up to a new level. Paper banners and bunting can make parties look much more elegant and create a lot less waste. You can now customise your decorations when you order them so that they are all ready for you to put straight up. Alternatively, if you purchase general decorations that are still birthday themed for example, you can use them at your next birthday party that you hold.

To enhance your colour scheme a new modern decoration that has been used by many is filling mason jars with the theme coloured sweets. If you are having a jungle themed party you can fill and distribute mason jars with green sweets which your guests can admire and also enjoy the taste of!

Digitalise Your Invitations

We understand that sometimes receiving an invitation in the post and having it physically is a really nice touch. However, sending your guests virtual invites or emailing the invite you would have printed will save you both time and money. Plus, you could even add onto your invitation that it is an environmentally friendly party! Let your friends and family know that you are making positive changes.

Good Food

For a successful party you need good food. Using local businesses means less mileage used by all. Whether you are collecting your food or having someone deliver it to you. If they are local it’ll take them a lot less time in a vehicle. Plus, if you choose a local company like Acorn Hog Roast, we’re just down the road and can be at your event in no time at all. We’d be happy to cater for your event. Simply choose one of our event packages and contact our team for a quote.

Crockery & Tableware

Washing the dishes isn’t everyone’s favourite job but it is much more environmentally friendly than using plastic utensils and paper plates. If you would rather not use your normal day to day plates, have finger food where possible or choose a meal that reduces the need for plates like a hog roast. If you have linen reusable napkins you can use these to hold and catch anything that you may drop from your pulled pork sandwich.
