The Kitchen encourages its suppliers to work with each other to create a "circle" of recycling. Here's one example:

RESTAURANT The Kitchen buys from Conscious Coffees, a fair-trade roaster of organic beans in Breckenridge, Colorado. It purchases produce from Cure Organic Farm in Boulder, which distributes only within a 30-mile radius.

COFFEE ROASTER Conscious Coffees gives its empty coffee-bean sacks to Cure Organic Farm.

FARM Cure Organic Farm uses the sacks to store vegetables in winter. Some of their vegetables wind up on the plates at The Kitchen.
