Fall Football Parties Filled to the Brim with Bamboo

By Bamboo Grove on September 5, 2023

From the Friday night lights at local high school stadiums to the pomp & pageantry of professional players and every level in between, the start of September is the official kick-off for fall football season across the United States.

Football lovers rejoice because it’s back to armchair quarterbacking, passionately screaming at the television screen, and stuffing your face full of delicious hot wings at halftime. Will you be cheering for yet another national championship for the Georgia Bulldogs? Or perhaps you’re placing your faith in the recently-traded Aaron Rodgers? Regardless of who you’re rooting for this season, you can use bamboo to create a one-of-a-kind football party fit for the record books.

Now, you may be wondering exactly how we’re going to tie bamboo and football together, but it’s really quite simple with such a versatile and durable material. Even if you’re not a fan of football at all, these affordable DIY bamboo crafts can be easily converted for anniversary, birthday, or wedding celebrations. Our favorite bamboo party favors include:

• Miniature stadium replicas filled with your most-impressive chips, dips, and snacks.
• Personalized bamboo placeholders engraved with your guests’ names.
• Eco-friendly bamboo straws with team colors and logos.
• Football-themed thank-you cards.
• Raffles for gift baskets filled with a combination of bamboo/football prizes.
• Bamboo tablecloths, silverware, plates, and other dining utensils.
• A bamboo craft station for little kiddos attending your party.
• Bamboo seeds so your guests can start a small bamboo garden of their very own.
• …and so many more!

Here at Bamboo Grove, we are passionate about bamboo and the incorporation of this plant into our everyday lives. We’re here to educate our readers about the benefits of bamboo and how even the smallest changes can make big impacts on our fragile environment.

The bottom line is that we have to leave behind a better planet for our future generations and while buying bamboo supplies and party favors might not feel like you’re making much of a climate change contribution, similar to a drop in the bucket. What they fail to mention is that all those “drops” will eventually add up, leading to a brighter, “greener” tomorrow for our families and friends.
