  • reduce the impact of long distance deliveries on natural resources
  • support local communities and promote increased food safety and integrity
  • serve products that mature in the field and spend less time on the shelf

Serving sense

  • source, offer, and use recyclable, renewable, biodegrable, and compostable products
  • use only as much water, soap, energy, electricity as is absolutely necessary, making "frugal" a compliment!

  • recycle 
  • use less disposables 
  • use cleaning agents that are easier on the environment
