VerTerra To Go Balsa Tray and Palm Plates   

 

VerTerra Dinnerware sponsored Feast Portland 2017 in Portland, OR. Feast Portland is a festival of foodies who come from all over to enjoy food, wine and beer from only the best around the country. 

Everyone was so excited to use our palm leaf plates and trays during this event and we were even more excited to see the compost barrel fill up multiple times a day with our biodegradeable plates! Creative energy and enthusiasm filled the air along with the smells of churros and smoked brisket at the Night Market.

The Sunday Brunch event was packed with hungry attendees waiting in line for waffles, organic oatmeal and fresh eggs creatively whipped up in such a way that we couldn't figure how chef's did that. We'll stick to our day jobs....

Is your mouth watering yet? We wish it was September so we could go back!

Take a look at our pictures of all the fun we had photographing the culinary creations:
