Sustainable Growth: The Edible Kind

community-garden-thumb

From time to time, we use the Promega Connections blog to tell you a little bit more about life here at Promega Corporation. For more than 40 years Promega has consistently integrated the values of corporate responsibility and sustainable business practices in all aspects of our corporate culture and activity; one of those aspects can be found in the Promega cafeterias. As an employee of Promega, one of the things I have considered a key perk is the wonderful menu offerings we have here at the Madison campus. The kitchens offer a varied and fun menu full of healthy choices, using local, seasonal foods as much as possible. The Promega Culinary Garden was covers more than an acre and allows us to grow many of our own vegetables and herbs as well as compost food waste.

Below is a short video highlighting the Culinary Garden Program

    Here are Promega we are so thankful to be able to partake of fresh vegetables that are grown, harvested, prepared and cooked on the Promega campus. Promega’s restaurants are open and available to the public. If you are in Madison and get the chance to stop by, come on in and join us for lunch one day. We’d love to show you just how delicious and healthy the food really is!
