The Ancaster Fair Waste Management Program diverts waste from the Fair into recycling, composting, and cardboard. This reduces and diverts waste going to landfills. With help from the City of Hamilton and their waste station program we have successfully increased our diversion rates annually to approximately 35%- 56% since 2015.
