Our meat is raised on farms where the animals are free to roam, our fish are sustainably caught or ethically farmed.

Our fruit and vegetables are locally purchased when in season and our bread is made daily by our local bakery.

Recycling is very important to us and this is why our stationary is printed using recycled paper. We also recycle our cardboard and paper products, and are committed to trying to recycle 100% of our glass bottle waste.
