It's a volunteer run service by local parents that's totally free. Borrow a set of dishes for your party and don't use anything disposable.

plateshare.ca

Please share this with other groups and let them know we exist. I am no longer on other forms of social media to remind people about us and it makes me sad that usage has done down and people are probably buying disposable stuff from the dollar store.

Not only does it keep people from using disposables, it’s a good solution for people who don’t have a lot of storage space.

Fifty plates in a bucket!

Maybe I’ll put together a bright plastic party set, plenty of people could borrow one for a park picnic.
