Required if pursuing either part of the credit:
The Sustainable Food and Beverage Purchasing Program at Fredonia Dining Services comprises a tri-faceted methodology that embraces the 3 Ps - Planet, People, and Profit: sustainability considerations - are products and vendors local, FTO certified, etc; customer considerations - are products desired by our customers; and economic - are products competitively priced.
All three facets are considered when identifying product specs. By sharing our methodology with various suppliers we have increased our percentage of local purchases, and, in conjunction with our primary food distributor Maplevale Farms, of Falconer, NY, we have demonstrated our commitment to encourage suppliers to think "locally," as we do.
An inventory of the institution’s sustainable food and beverage purchases that includes for each product: the description/type; label, brand or producer; and the category in which it is being counted and/or a description of its sustainability attribute(s):
A brief description of the methodology used to conduct the inventory, including the timeframe and how representative samples accounted for seasonal variation (if applicable):
