A brief description of the sustainable food and beverage purchasing program:
As part of the commitment of Loyola Dining Services to protect and improve the environment, the University has developed and implemented long-term environmental stewardship programs and policies such as sustainable food procurement. Loyola understands the power and centrality of food in our daily lives and interactions, and recognize that our food choices have a significant impact on our health, culture, environment, and local and global economies. Loyola is committed to fostering new connections "from field to fork" and changing the culture of food by nourishing our guests with menus that emphasize fresh whole foods that are raised, grown, harvested and produced locally and/or sustainably wherever possible, and prepared in ways that respect and maintain quality, freshness and pureness.
