IMPACT
SHOWING UP FOR THE PLANET
Changemaking is key. Over the years, we’ve become a sustainability leader in our industry, and in one of the most climate-friendly regions in the nation. We hope others join us.
When it comes to sustainability, we fund and work for what’s right. Comprehensive, company-wide processes are in place for preventing food waste, reducing single-use packaging, mitigating climate change, and much more. We’re committed to strong local partnerships with mission-driven partners to build a more resilient and sustainable food system.

Waste Reduction
Waste reduction is part of our DNA and a consistent focus as we strive to reduce our waste to landfills, mitigate and divert food waste, and create more opportunities for recycling.

Climate Action
As a company founded with a mission to support sustainable food systems, we believe it is our responsibility to the local community to reduce our emissions.
