Have you heard? Our community of businesses expanded! Learn more about Little Kim: www.zingermanscommunity.com/2025/08/a-ne...

We have fun reducing, reusing, recycling, and composting. We model how great service can be inclusive of great environmental stewardship.

Embodying Lean Principles allows us to continuously improve our services and reduce waste. We monitor and mindfully reduce our footprint, from the packaging we use to the energy it takes to run our businesses.

We believe that this extra cost is part of doing good business—doing the right thing. Continually monitoring and adjusting our finances to account for this extra cost while maintaining solid profits shows us we are making the right choices in the long run.

We know that improving our impact may cost more. We acknowledge that we may need to spend more to do business in a way that is mindful of our impact on this world.

We strive to consistently evaluate the ingredients, foods, and drinks we serve and the goods we purchase to find authentic and full-flavored products that honor and protect the ecosystems and people we depend on.

We take great care in choosing full-flavored, traditional foods that are produced with minimal environmental impact and contribute positively to our global community. We believe in telling regenerative stories when it comes to our food.

In addition to the standards we have for the quality of our ingredients and products, standards for sourcing and environmental footprint are important to us. We ask ourselves before making decisions: How are our choices contributing to the well-being of our planet?

Our actions are actively preserving and enhancing the natural ecosystem that we depend on for our three bottom lines. We recognize that our choices and actions have an impact on the world we live in.
