Sustainability at Its Finest
We pride ourselves on approaching culinary arts with a “food is medicine” mindset. HRA’s farm-to-table philosophy means we proudly work with local farms and often use our own homegrown vegetables and herbs to create daily menus featuring fresh, seasonal, and clean ingredients for residents and families to enjoy.
We make a conscious choice to support a reliable and ethical food system. By choosing to prioritize sustainability in our food service practices, we are taking a step towards a healthier and more resilient future for our residents, their guests, and the environment.
Sustainability in our culinary production involves the responsible use of resources, the reduction of waste, and the promotion of a healthy ecosystem. We not only support local farmers and businesses but also ensure the food our residents and guests consume in our on-site restaurants is fresh, nutritious, and responsibly sourced.
I remember when I was seven years old, in my grandmother’s kitchen helping her make Sunday sauce. She would always tell me how important it was to select the freshest produce – how to hold a tomato and feel its ripeness. She’d give me clippers to cut fresh basil from her garden and she would use every inch of the product from stems to bones in her cooking. She took time to explain the importance of respecting the earth and the food we eat. She’d let me stir the sauce and sneak a little taste. That’s where my love for cooking and appreciation for farming began.
Partnerships that strengthen our mission
The farm-to-table movement promotes transparency in the food supply chain, allowing us to trace the origin of our food and understand how it was produced. By collaborating with local farmers and businesses who also share the mission to preserve our natural resources and grow clean produce, we are reducing our carbon footprint and supporting sustainable agriculture practices.
Building those relationships with our farms and vendors is key to providing an exceptional culinary experience synonymous with HRA.
