A bit about Green Plate Catering

For over 25 years, Kit Wood has specialized in vegan and vegetarian cuisine (while also offering meat to those who request).  Originally Kit’s Catering, the newly named Green Plate Catering has expanded its food options while not compromising standards for local and organic ingredients.  GPC has established relationships with several local farmers including Tuscarora Farms, Arganica and Albert’s Organics, allowing it create and offer only the freshest, healthiest dishes.  It has recently added organic meats to its catering and lunch menus, and will soon be offering Good to Go meals at health food stores and offices.

How Green Plate Catering is Green

In addition to its responsible buying policy and shared kitchen, Green Plate Catering is recognized by Green America as a Green Business.  Some of the green operation practices at Green Plate Catering include using non-disposable or recyclable dishware, storing spices and seasonings in reused glass containers, buying products in bulk with minimal packaging, and cleaning with natural biodegradable products.  When their new construction is complete, Green Plate Catering will also become a LEED certified building.

Why we think Green Plate Catering is great

We like that Green Plate Catering offers and encourages customers to eat lower on the food chain, offering delicious vegetarian meals, and to use glass and silverware rather than the typical disposable plates and utensils.  Buying locally is also a great boost to the economy in the DC area and allows Green Plate Catering to take an active step in supporting individual farmers and family-owned businesses.
