tips for sustainable summer entertaining 5

As the weather warms, people flock outdoors, indulging in BBQs, cookouts and backyard hangouts. All that entertaining adds up, so consider how the little choices you make can have a big impact on the environment. Here are five tips for a greener outdoor gathering.

1. Stay local

Avoid adding to pollution levels by choosing a venue that’s local to most of your guests. This reduces the need for guests to drive or take transportation. If your house isn’t a suitable venue, opt for a local park or shoreline for a serene setting.

2. Choose reusables

It may be tempting to have a sink free of dishes following a summer

gathering, but consider eliminating single-use cutlery, napkins and plates. Instead, use reusable options that better protect the planet.

3. Plants over flowers

Consider decorating with potted plants over fresh-cut flowers. These bouquets come with more emissions and a shorter shelf-life. Plants can liven up a space with greenery, are more cost-effective and along with producing oxygen throughout the day, may help purify the air by ridding it of common toxins and indoor pollutants.

4. Grill greenly

Make more eco-conscious grilling choices, whether that’s choosing products from carbon-neutral food companies like Maple Leaf Foods or

Consider decorating with potted plants over fresh-cut flowers

considering new innovations such as electric grills that cut down on emissions.

5. Love leftovers

Take orders from guests in advance to cut down on food waste. If you have leftovers, think of ways to “upcook” them for a follow-up meal such as tasty toppings for salads or fillings for wraps. Of course, bones can be used in broth and veggies in stews, too.

If you love to entertain during the summer months, make the planet your guest of honour and treat it kindly. ■ — News Canada

4simple home refreshes that make your space feel new

With the cost of living on the rise, many homeowners are skipping big renovations and opting for smaller, smarter updates instead. A few DIY refreshes can make your home feel brand new, create a great space for hosting and even add value, all without breaking the bank.

Something to note: Some major updates can affect your home’s replacement value, so you should check with your insurer before starting. Some providers, such as Belairdirect, have apps that let you review your coverage, get a quote in minutes and make updates easily, all from your phone.

Good lighting changes how a space looks and feels.

That way, you can move forward with confidence and get straight to the fun part:

1. Give your space an instant facelift

You don’t need a full renovation to make your home feel fresh. A coat of paint or swapping outdated cabinet hardware, door handles and light fixtures can make a big visual impact and are easy to do yourself.

2. Set the mood with smarter lighting

Good lighting changes how a space looks and feels. You can get brighter, longer-lasting light at a lower energy cost by replacing incandescent bulbs with LEDs. Outside, solar pathway lights or string lights can instantly create a warm, inviting atmosphere, perfect for that casual summer get-together.

3. Create your own backyard retreat

Pick one area and make it feel like an extension of your home. You can add shade with a canopy or umbrella, bring in comfortable seating, lay down an outdoor rug to define the space and add planters or flowers for a pop of colour.

4. Keep the cool air in

Check windows, doors and doorframes for small gaps that let cool air escape. Weatherstripping or caulking is a simple, affordable fix that helps keep your home comfortable year-round. A programmable thermostat can also help manage heating and cooling automatically when you’re not home. With a little creativity and a weekend or two, you can make your home feel like new again.

No cottage? No problem: Doing city summers like a local

Whether you’re in British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario or Quebec, cottaging is often seen as a quintessential Canadian summer experience. But with rising costs and an increasingly competitive rental market during the peak summer months, weekends at the lake may be harder to come by. Fortunately, many of the same experiences can be found in the city, without the long drive.

Lakeside fun

Canada has no shortage of lakes, rivers and ponds, making it easier to

find a nearby beach or body of water. Many cities have beaches with amenities such as volleyball courts, food options, walking trails and picnic areas.

Picnic in the green

Cottage life is all about slowing down, so spend a day outdoors at one of your city’s parks. Many cities have lively central parks that attract young adults, while larger urban parks often feature family-friendly playgrounds, open fields and shaded picnic spots. If you’re near the water, look for newer waterfront parks or trails that offer scenic views, unique

play structures and plenty of room to unwind.

Food and drink

For refreshments that offer a change of scenery, consider a visit to a lakefront restaurant or brewery. From beavertails to bubble tea and sushi, there’s usually something for all taste buds, with water views as a frequent added bonus.

Get active

If you prefer land-based activity, look for public courts for beach volleyball, tennis or pickleball. Boardwalk and lakeside trails are popular routes for runners, rollerbladers and cyclists. If you want to get out on the water, look for designated areas to launch kayaks, canoes or stand-up paddleboards.

Urban centres offer plenty to do over the summer months, with cottage-style activities available in a convenient urban setting. As many cities continue to invest in their waterfronts, residents can expect more public spaces and family-friendly attractions in the years ahead. In Toronto, for example, those plans include a new public beach and projects such as Therme, a wellness facility expected to feature year-round waterslides, social saunas and wellness attractions.
