GRAS... growing a sustainable food community in Sacramento.
GRAS is dedicated to making Sacramento a leading sustainable food community and a leader in the green restaurant industry.
Led by chefs, and including staff, diners, local growers, wineries, distributors, vendors, and municipalities, GRAS is a coalition dedicated to greening our restaurant industry by bringing all sectors of the restaurant industry together in Sacramento.
Our organization will serve as a resource for the latest information on sustainable practices, and will serve to consult and educate both restaurants and the public alike.
We aim to be a leader in the community, striving to be responsive to urgent issues (i.e. water conservation) and current technologies.
GRAS desires to keep industry waste “out of the landfill,” seeking to reduce packaging and direct more industry waste to compost and reuse. We will help restaurants initiate green procedures and coordinate related infrastructure.
