SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainability is an integral part of all that Villanova Dining Services does. From buying ingredients, to prepping and serving food, to what happens after your meal, we promote and implement environmentally friendly practices throughout our operations.

 

VILLANOVA'S PLAN

Care for our planet is an integral part of our Augustinian Catholic heritage. The Villanova Sustainability Plan integrates the University’s value-centered principles with environmental stewardship, promoting inclusion of all members of the University and impacting all aspects of sustainability.

   


FROM FARM TO VILLANOVA

As part of our commitment to sustainable practices, we buy local, organic and fairly traded products whenever possible because we know that what we serve makes a difference.

We're committed to buying local, organic and fairly traded items to not only feed Villanovans the best but also support our community.

Reuse to Reduce

Reusable products help to reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills. You can do your part by choosing our resident dining halls, using refillable water bottles and now coffee mugs, which can earn you a discount on your coffee purchase at Holy Grounds.
