(EMAILWIRE.COM, April 20, 2010 ) Lewiston, ME - Start the weekend with blueberry pancakes, end with fireworks and donÂ’t forget the lobster races and seafood festival in between.
In addition to celebrating, the goal for Bar Harbor this year is to create as little waste as possible. Both the morning pancake breakfast and afternoon seafood festival are aiming for being zero-waste events. Biodegradable utensils, cups and plates will be used exclusively. After the events all compostable products, including leftover seafood shells, will be taken care of in green ways.
Another way to keep your carbon carbon footprint low is to bike/walk around town. Bar Harbor offers extensive bike paths through and around town so you can park your car and forget it for the rest of your visit. Nearby Acadia National Park is a reminder of why eco-practices are so important and how beautiful our country can be. Family/car passes are only $20 for an entire week!
To keep the green theme going stay at either the Atlantean Cottage or Graycote Inn which proudly employ eco-friendly strategies. Graycote Inn was recently named one of the Top Ten Ecolodges and Green Hotels by Independent Traveler and offers nightly rates starting at $95. This Independence weekend visit Bar Harbor and help save the planet while celebrating!
