Make Your Next Event Low-Waste and Support Local Green Caterers
June 14, 2023Hosting an event on campus? Ensure that the environmental impact of your event is minimized by following tips from UMB's Office of Sustainability. Click on the links below to access PDFs with tips for small and large events.
The Office of Sustainability has also created a Green Eats List and interactive map that can be used the next time you are looking for a vendor for a campus event, your next office lunch, or simply a personal meal. All of the vendors listed are located within 2 miles of our campus. They were evaluated on their green practices through plant-based menu options, bulk options (food, beverages, condiments) for catering, compostable/biodegradable wares (plates, utensils, cups), and sourcing ingredients locally. The information gathered is from businesses’ responses. We hope to grow this list, so make sure to check back periodically for new Green Eats!
If you use our Green Eats List, we would love for you to let us know if the information we have posted about the business you choose is correct by taking this brief survey. General feedback is also welcome and appreciated.
