SUSTAINABILITY

At Standing Stone, we work to operate our restaurant and brewery in way that protects and restores the environment, and supports the health and happiness of our community, visitors and employees.

Your choice to dine at Standing Stone supports renewable energy, waste reduction, pollution prevention and resource conservation, builds demand for recycled and biodegradable products and helps create a more sustainable community and planet.

Energy, climate change, natural resource use and waste prevention are some of our focus areas. We continually look for ways to reduce our eco-footprint and meet our long-term goals of zero net energy use and zero waste. We're also dedicated to enhancing our community, supporting causes that align with our values and making our business a great place to work.

Our efforts have received local and state recognition, including the State of Oregon Sustainability Award and inclusion in Oregon Business' "100 Best Green Businesses" and "100 Best Green Companies to Work For" lists, as well as ongoing media. We're honored and hope to inspire others while we continue to focus on improving what we do.
