4 ways to Practice Leave No Trace at Community Festivals

Bishop, CA: While enjoying the Bishop City Park Earth Day Festival, it dawned on us that Leave No Trace applies in this type of frontcountry gathering as well. With this thought in mind, we bring you 4 ways to practice Leave No Trace at community festivals. Watch the video or read the tips below!

1.          Reduce waste by opting for re-useable – our favorite reusable option is Kleen Kanteen wear.  

2.          Trash your trash – recycle what you can.

3.          Select a durable surface to enjoy the show – including picnic tables or dry grass.

4.          Let the flowers grow – leave what you find.

5.          Enjoy your world and leave no trace!
