Eco-Friendly Green Catering for Picnics
Our picnic recycling program utilizes eco-friendly products to reduce your event's impact on the environment and make your picnic "green."
Biodegradeable Plates
Chinet® Classic White Premium Strength Plate is recognized everywhere as a quality product you can rely on for superior strength. When you are enjoying a plate full of picnic favorites, this plate will match your needs. It is made of 99% reclaimed fiber and is certified biodegradable.
Eco-Friendly Cutlery
Eco-Products Heavyweight Cutlery is 100% compostable and eco-friendly. Say goodbye to plastic utensils and hello to this new disposable utensil choice. They are made from non-GMO vegetable starch and are OK compost certified. Under commercial composting, these biodegradable utensils break down in 95 days.
Compostable Cold Cups
Eco-Products Cold Cups are 100% compostable and eco-friendly. Unlike petroleum-based cold cups that depend on oil and don’t compost, this strong and durable cup is made from PLA plastic and derived from U.S. grown corn.
Green Straws
Eco-Products Straws are 100% compostable and eco-friendly. Similar to the compostable cold cups, these green, eco-friendly straws are made of PLA plastic and derived from corn.
Recycling Program
Our catering Aluminum & Bottle Recycling Program is included with every picnic that includes beverages. Special garbage cans that are clearly marked “Recycle Cans & Bottles ONLY” will be sent out to your event in order to promote the recycling of pop cans and water bottles. These receptacles will be located appropriately and emptied throughout the event by our staff. Recycled cans and bottles will then be returned to our building for the final recycling service. This program can be purchased separately for events without beverage service for a charge of $.75 per guest.
Clean Cooking Methods
Propane Gas is used at all of our events for grill cooking. By using propane instead of charcoal, the actual burning and heating process is cleaner. There is no soot or waste that can be released into the environment.
Waste Removal
Grease Waste from the grills at our picnics will be collected and sent out so that it can be recycled into bio-diesel.
