Go for the GREEN in the Garden!

Spring has arrived and the smell, taste and feel of green is all around us. Your local garden center has begun stocking ready mix and gardening supplies. We've decided to step up our green plan and local food initiative to include a few new twists. Here are some of the ways we are helping out the environment and keeping our dishes fresh.

We are planting seeds! Thats right. Edible flowers are all the range in haute cusine this spring. The patio garden had been prepped, edible flowers and fresh herbs to come!

Not only are edible flowers beautiful they are accompanied by amazing flavour, vitamins and minerals.

Lilac blossoms are edible and have a pungent floral and lemony flavour? Make sure they are natural and not sprayed with herbicides and pesticides!

Marigold and Nasturtium contain vitamin c!

We are composting! Weigh in the compost. By measuring compost in the kitchen and what we bring home daily from events we can erase our carbon footprint.  We’ll keep you posted on how many lbs/ kilos we are composting monthly and the overall decrease in our carbon footprint.

We are sorting! Let's Sort. Each time the AY crew does a new event we take 3 containers, blue for recycling, clear for Garbage and a pail with lid for composting and all come back to our shop at the end of every event.
