SUSTAINABILITY

At Big Ponderoo, we strive to provide exceptional experiences without damaging the planet in the process. We're proud to have adopted a number of sustainable practices while acknowledging that there is always more work to be done. Here's what we're currently doing to promote sustainability:

We do not provide disposable cups for beverages. All adult ticket holders receive a free Silipint cup at check-in.
Attendees have access to a free filtered water bottle filling station.
We encourage all of our performing artists to use reusable water bottles and only provide disposable water bottles upon request.
We aim to serve as many beverages in kegs (rather than cans or bottles) as possible.
We encourage biking and walking to the venue and provide a free Bike Valet service.
We recycle all plastic, paper, glass, and cardboard accumulated before, during, and after the festival that complies with recycling standards in Deschutes County.
We're excited to introduce food composting stations beside every trash receptacle this year to further reduce our waste.
Our efforts this year have been supported by generous grants from The Environment Center, Bend, and Can'd Aids Crush-It Campaign.

Bike Valet

BIKE VALET

Cruise to the festival on your bike and let our volunteers keep an eye on it for you while you enjoy the music. Blazin’ Saddles hosts our bike valet at Village Green Park. The bike valet is free to festival patrons, and saves you the hassle of parking a car! Tips are gladly appreciated and support Sisters Folk Festival’s music and arts programming in the Sisters schools and community. Please do not leave your bike before volunteers arrive. Bikes will not be looked after overnight, so be sure to pick up your bike before valet closes.
