Bundy on Tap has continued to run a strong campaign against single use water bottles since the village of Bundanoon became the first bottled water free town in 2009.
Christine Rowell-Miller said that the village of Bundanoon had sustained its position for 10 years and that the campaign remains alive and strong.
"Bundy on tap continues to today, we chat to all new business owners about going single use water bottle free and there have been no problems," she said.
"There's only spritz and light flavoured waters available only, you won't find bottles of water here.
"Recently San Francisco International Airport went plastic bottle free and it's good to see that Bundanoon continues to be a good message globally."
To celebrate, Bundanoon Earth Fest will be jam packed with activities for all shapes and sizes.
There will be more than 40 stalls, exhibits, displays, information stands, environmental speakers and workshops on a variety of useful topics like how and what to recycle, creating great compost, how to make a worm farm and learn how to graft.
There will also be opportunities to learn about the plight of many indigenous animals such as Koalas, Wombats, Glossy Black Cockatoos, Brush-tail Rock Wallaby's, Raptors and more.
Help make a difference and adopt an animal or simply plant a tree on the day.
There will also be natural cleaning products, natural oil, bamboo toothbrushes, yoga mats, keep cups, re-usable bags and more available to purchase.
Talk to Hidden Harvest about excessive food waste and what they are doing to help or talk to solar panel experts about solar passive designs and how we all can make a difference in the small things we do daily.
There will be plenty of activities for the kids. They can find out how to make a little bee hive, make bunting from material scraps and learn so much on the day.
The Bundanoon Earth Festival is on September 21 from 9am to 3pm, in the Bundanoon Soldiers' Memorial Hall.
