Here are some of our efforts; Every week begins at Farmer's Market. We use only the highest ingredients, and whenever possible, we make it a point to source them through purveyors who offer organic, local, and sustainably farmed foods. Our menus and decor florals are seasonal and local. All the lighting is our building is LED. Staff car pooling is encouraged for each event we do. We filter our own water for the offices to reduce the use of plastic water bottles. While on location disposables are kept to a minimum and we offer rented and compostable alternatives. We do not use throw-away food pans and recycling is practiced in our offices, kitchen and on location. Communication is done electronically to keep paper waste to a minimum. All of our green waste goes to feed three giant Sulcata turtles adopted from the zoo that weigh about 80 pounds each! Decor & florals are reused when ever possible. Santa Barbara County energy grids are some of the best in the country and now run with 17% renewable resources. |
