Advert Calendar, tips for a sustainable Christmas

🗓️🎄Countdown to Christmas! Grandma Sita’s Advent Calendar is here! Celebrating Christmas in an eco-friendly and zero-waste manner is fun, affordable, and delicious. It also represents a significant step towards reducing our environmental footprint while enjoying this popular holiday. It’s a win-win!

🌱🍽️ Christmas celebrations vary greatly worldwide, but many traditional Christmas foods share common plant-based ingredients such as nuts, dried fruits, spices, and herbs. These ingredients’ warm, inviting aroma creates a cozy and festive atmosphere, making them perfect for delightful winter plant-based meals. Get inspired by yummy Grandma Sita’s plant-based Christmas treats!

👵💚 Grandma Sita’s tips:

*There are many types of edible gifts you can prepare yourself. Remember that using newspapers, fabric, or recycled brown paper is more environmentally friendly than conventional wrapping paper. If you’re not into cooking or crafting, no worries! You can give an experience instead, creating lasting memories together.
*Instead of purchasing Christmas decorations, consider choosing affordable and recyclable options during the festive season. You can make your decorations using pinecones, paper, or fruit pieces. Create your Christmas tree with items like books, wood, or anything else you can think of! 

📗 An Advent calendar is used to count the days leading up to Christmas, starting from December 1st and ending on Christmas Eve, December 24th. The term “Advent” comes from the Latin word “adventus,” which means “arrival.” Even those who are not Christians can enjoy it as a fun countdown to Christmas.

🌎 There are many actions you can take at home to reduce food waste and incorporate more plant-forward meals before, during, and after Christmas. Every bit counts. Happy Holidays ahead!
