Pepper’s Fine Catering and Events has become a Certified Green Restaurant thanks to ongoing sustainability efforts, the company announced Tuesday.
The Green Restaurant Association awarded Pepper’s, of Northborough, a two-star status. The association evaluates everything from the sustainability of the food served to water efficiency.
The company has been concerned with sustainability for some time, according to a release, through actions such as cultivating local honey, growing herbs in our organic garden and sourcing meats and produce from local farms. In the last year, it has invested in low emissions vans, efficient lighting upgrades and onsite composting.
The company plans to increase its environmentally friendly stance with the installation of solar panels in the next year.
