Healthier Dining: For You and the Planet

Our Food & Beverage Sustainability Program at Signal Mountain Lodge is a leader amongst National Park Concessionaires and is continually improving and expanding. We are 3-Star Certified by the Green Restaurant Association and a member of the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch program. Our Food and Beverage operations work with all of our property-wide initiatives as well as some specific to the restaurant outlets. Listed below are some of our initiatives:

• We use automatic dishwashing detergent, sanitizer, and degreaser that are biodegradable and do not contain NTA or chlorine bleach.
• All of our to-go packaging and paper products are made from recycled and/or renewable resources.
• We purchase CSAs for the Peaks Restaurant and staff use from Robinson Family Farm & Ranch in Bedford, WY.
• We purchase grass-fed whole cows from Robinson Family Farm & Ranch for our staff.
• All our burgers are from the grass-fed angus ranch HD Dunn & Son in Tetonia, ID.
• We only purchase seafood approved on the Green List from Seafood Watch.
• We strive to purchase as locally as possible, and research our carbon footprint for large quantity items.
• We work to purchase items that are organically or sustainably produced.
• We use eggs that are cage free, and milk that has not been treated with hormones such as rGBH.
• Our homemade dough at Leek's Pizzeria is made with organic flours and cage-free eggs.
• We are ISO 22000 certified.

This is just a partial list of our programs. We have a 'Wall of Sustainability' in our restaurant building that showcases our programs as well as several of our vendors. Stop by to see our latest efforts!
