A brief description of the sustainable food and beverage purchasing program:
Dining Services is committed to sustainable practices—from partnering with local food vendors whenever possible to serving fair-trade coffee and offering compostable dinnerware.
Additionally, in the Spring of 2012, a Sustainable Food Committee led by a Dining Services intern, Rachel Gilbert, is spearheading a program to both identify a better statistic for the percentage of food expenditures that uphold this credit's criteria and to introduce more local and fair-trade foods into Dickinson's Dining facilities.
This sustainability internship position will continue in the Fall and the sustainable food committee boasts a working group of about 15-20 active members.
