Guess what we were up to Monday night? Getting recognized by the @carlsbadcagov City Council for completing certification as a California Green Business, after completing 82 🤪 separate green measures! Already a partner in the City's EcoEats program, which aims to reduce food waste from eateries, our entire ethos as a company is built around the value of frugality, passed down from our French farming family heritage. Our café furniture and décor are vintage, our plates and utensils are thrifted and of course reusable, and most of our kitchen equipment is re-used. We operate in the best tradition of French bakeries where nothing goes to waste, and yesterday's baguettes and croissants are repurposed as crisps, croutons, breadcrumbs and bread pudding 😋. Here is a photo of our cohort of other businesses honored that night - go #Carlsbad! Wanna patronize other Carlsbad businesses working hard to help the city's meet their climate goals?
