Local leaders in the hotel scene, the Evans Hotel Group, are among the first to renew their membership to the OFR 2.0 program at three of their hotel restaurants. The A.R. Valentien (The Lodge Torrey Pines), Oceana Coastal Kitchen (Catamaran), and The Grill at Torrey Pines (The Lodge at Torrey Pines) were all certified this month for meeting the OFR criteria.
While we’re pretty proud of the OFR program and the commitment participating restaurants make, we know there is much more to be done. We are thrilled to hear about the additional steps OFR restaurants take to reduce their negative environmental impact. With that, we want to take this opportunity to give a shout out to the Evans Group for composting! This one habit reduces methane in the atmosphere while producing nutrient rich soil that can be used to make food. Thank you to everyone involved in making this happen!
