The results are actual reduction in plastic use and shifts in mindset for businesses and residents.

Keith Tharp has two great kids who constantly make him proud. He enjoys a wonderful life with his wife Kate Harris and a Lagotto Romagnolo named Kalee. When he’s not roaming the globe for work and pleasure, he calls Kittery home. As co-owner of Kate & Keith Photography he enjoys traveling, working with amazing people and dancing on weekends. In November of 2017 Keith co-founded Sustainable Seacoast with his wife, a for-purpose organization with the mission of reducing the Seacoast’s impact on the environment through its primary goal of eliminating single-use plastics from the restaurant industry.
