What we are doing now!
Below are the steps that Catering by Design has taken to reduce our footprint on this great earth! We have learned many methods of being green by attending extensive training. See our certificate if you would like by clicking here.

1. All disposables are compostable – we charge more for disposables that are not compostable.
2. We are creating a 100 Mile Menu – all the food items on this menu are within 100 miles of Denver.
3. We have established a “green team” to share ideas of how to be green and stay green.
4. Working with an organic disposal company to compost all kitchen scraps during preparation of menus and compost all leftover food items that cannot be donated to shelters.
5. Utilizing “green” cleaning products.
6. Using food items that are in season.
7. Recycle all paper, foil, plastic etc. with each staff having a recycle container in their office and recycle containers throughout the facility including the kitchen.
8. Trying to cut down in using paper for marketing – but utilizing flash drives with all of CBD’s information.
