Where the Foodies Go

What makes us Green?

We do our best to practice and promote sustainability wherever and whenever we can. We recycle all our waste: paper, cardboard plastic, glass, and grease, netting one tenth that of a typical restaurant. We use dye-free paper products and limit their use. We print all our promotional materials on 100% PCW content paper. We also were the first farm-to-plate restaurant in West Michigan, now celebrating an 11-year partnership with Ingraberg Farms in Rockford. Sustainable Farming is our cornerstone: We only purchase from farmers who farm the land sustainably to ensure its use for generations to come. Take an inside look below at how we bring food from the farm to your plate!
