PSC's Environmental &
Community Programs
We strive to be a responsible member of the
community and a friend to the environment

Certified Green:  We're proud to be a lean, green, catering machine!  Certified as a Bay Area Green Business by the County of Sonoma on behalf of The Bay Area Green Business Program.

Recycling: We recycle everything we can from office papers to card board to aluminum and plastics.  We support local composting efforts by keeping separate waste cans for compostable kitchen scraps.  We recycle both at our facility and at our catering events.  We also use recycled and recyclable materials whenever feasible, from our marketing material to our "togo" boxes.

Bio Friendly:  We use biologically friendly chemicals for our cleaning products and even the pesticides used to protect the outside perimeter of our building.  We installed an oversized grease trap to further reduce contaminants. And we do all in our power to avoid the use of Styrofoam products.

Water Conservation:  We use low flow fixtures throughout our facility and drip irrigation for our drought tolerant landscaping.

Energy Conservation: We have installed energy efficient lighting throughout our facility, with motion and occupancy sensors where ever practical.  We use evaporative coolers instead of air conditioning. We car pool to events whenever possible.

Renewable Resources:  We recommend easily renewable food alternatives, such as tilapia instead of sea bass.

Charitable Contributions: We contribute well over $12,000 in gift certificates and catering to community fund raisers throughout the community every year, from PEP Housing and COTS, to the Cinnabar Theatre and many of the schools & churches, and many other programs.  We donate to the Petaluma Community Kitchen whenever we can (we even gave them our old delivery van!).  We donate about $3000 in food and toys to the Christmas Cheer program every year.

Community and Professional Memberships: We are members of the Petaluma Chamber of Commerce, the Petaluma Downtown Association, the California Restaurant Association, the National Restaurant Association, the International Caterers Association, the National Federation of Independent Businesses, and CaterSource.

Community Volunteer:  We helped found the Petaluma Art & Garden Festival and volunteer annually for its coordination committee.  We also volunteer and donate supplies and catering for the Petaluma Butter & Eggs Day Parade and the Petaluma Antique Fairs.
