A brief description of the enterprise:
The Natural Resources Club has a snack and coffee cart where they sell Fair Trade and sustainable food products. The coffee is purchased from a local microroaster, Sacred Grounds. Their teas come from Stash, an Oregon company, and their fruit is from the local North Coast Co-Op. The club offers brown sugar and creamer from Humboldt Creamery. All of their spreads are organic, coming from the local co-op and some are vegan friendly as well. The bagels all come from local Los Bagels. They put the bagels and muffins in reuseable resealable bags, none are individually wrapped to cut down waste. The even use 7th generation soap, a very "green" product. They also try to have fresh cut flowers at the table from the local Sun Valley farms or a local native flower to share. Everything they offer to students and faculty they try to get locally and sustainable. Their goals are to continue to support the community with the environment and it's people's health in mind.
