OUR FOOD ETHOS

We believe the choices


we make every day about
what we eat,
where it comes from and
how it was prepared have
a direct and powerful
impact on health of
individuals, communities
and the environment.
This is our food ethos, and it guides us in every decision we make. Were on a mission
to redefine and scale healthy fast food, and we use this as a framework. Were always
looking for ways to source smarter, to make better decisions and to help sweetgreen
and its customers be a positive force in the world and on the food system. We feel a
great sense of responsibility and pride to change what it means to be in the business
of feeding people. Here are the four pillars of our food ethos, along with an explanation
of how they manifest in each sweetgreen kitchen.

1. SCRATCH COOKING

2. TRANSPARENCY

sweetgreen prides itself on serving real food. There is simply nothing better than
whole vegetables, whole fruits and whole grains, so these items are delivered to
our stores every morning. We dont have commissaries (read: off-site commercial
kitchens) our team dices, slices, spices and roasts these ingredients in-house
every day, and you can see them in action in our open kitchens. Scratch cooking
isnt easy to do, but were able to do it because we have simple recipes. And
we can have simple recipes because we get fresh produce teeming with natural
flavors that we simply dont mess with.

Every sweetgreen has a source list on the wall we keep it updated so you
know where your food comes from. On any given day, our restaurants serve food
from 100 different farms, and we partner with 500 farms throughout the year.
We believe in a transparent supply chain, and we go to great lengths to work
with farmers who are doing the right thing. In the spirit of transparency, if you
have questions about our food or sourcing, email us at AMA@sweetgreen.com
(AMA = ask me anything) - we love nerding out over this stuff.

3. LOCAL SOURCING

4. SUSTAINABILITY

We source from partners and growers we know and trust, letting their yield
dictate our menu rather than us dictating what they should grow. Weve learned
that the food with the best flavor is the food the land wants to grow, and no one
listens to the soil more than farmers. Last summer, we visited one of our Boston
farmers, Jim Ward, of Wards Berry Farm. Jim was growing a lot of local Hubbard
squash one of his favorites and seeing his crop inspired us to swap Hubbard
squash for butternut squash in our winter seasonal, which is a real win-win-win
in terms of taste and our food ethos. This past winter, we sourced 7,000 pounds
of Hubbard squash from Wards.

Since day one, weve prided ourselves on sustainability, from our store design
to our waste management. But sustainability manifests most in the food we
serve. The world cant afford not to think and eat sustainably, and we take steps
at sweetgreen to positively impact the food system. Last summer, we teamed
up with Blue Hills Dan Barber on a wastED salad to bring awareness to food
waste in this country, and weve altered a few recipes in light of what we learned
during that collaboration. And this season, were proud to introduce steelhead,
a sustainably raised fish thats a delicious alternative to the big four fish our
society has been overfarming and overfishing for too long.
