This Sunday, April 22 is Earth Day!
Join one billion people around the world who will participate-
pledge to an “act of green” or find local events in your area at
The Earth Day Network.
One green practice we love is eating locally! Did you know the average US food product travels 1,500 miles before it ever reaches our plates? We use as much local, sustainable food as possible- it supports our local farms, reduces our impact on the environment and is just plain delicious!
Just in time for the 42nd anniversary of Earth Day- ATTC has almost completed our green certification! The Green Restaurant Association has been assessing our company from top to bottom in categories of energy, water, waste, disposables, chemical & pollution reduction and sustainable food. They examine everything- light bulbs and recycled copy paper in our office, equipment and cleaners in the kitchen, linens and staff uniforms, the local flowers and herbs in the garden. Through this process we are strengthening our commitment to be environmentally responsible by saving energy and lessening waste.
