Boundary Bay Brewery Takes Fresh and Local Pledge

Posted on March 2, 2009 by Boundary Bay

buylocal_logoBoundary Bay Brewery has been a member of Sustainable Connections for years and in 2008 we made a committment to move Toward Zero Waste within our business.  Last week, we went a step further and took a Fresh and Local Business Pledge.  The Fresh and Local Pledge is a demonstration of our commitment to Northwest Washington Agriculture.  We have pledged to make a good-faith effort to soure from local producers.  We already consistently buy from many local producers including K & M Farm, Breckinridge Farm, Barlean’s, and Avenue Bread, but we have pledged that we will strive to add 2 new local vendors each year and attend one or more networking events to meet new producers.  Additionally, we have pledged to source at least 20% of our food budget from local vendors, to track local vs. non-local purchases, and work towards sourcing 25% of our food budget locally.  We believe strongly in buying and using local ingredients for many reasons:  the quality of the ingredients, the limited carbon footprint, and as support to our local agriculture.  All items on our menu that include local ingredients are marked with the Think Local, Buy Fresh icon so our customers can make informed decisions with their fork and their dollar.

PIONEERS OF BELLINGHAM BEER!

Boundary Bay Brewery opened in 1995 and we've been Saving The Ales ever since!

We pride ourselves on making great handcrafted beer and fresh, local food for the Bellingham community.

Our brewery, which houses a Tap Room and a family friendly Bistro, is located in a historic 1922 warehouse in Downtown Bellingham, across from the Saturday Farmer’s Market.

We also have a great deck for outdoor dining and a Beer Garden where you can enjoy BBQ's and outdoor concerts in the Summer. You can see why this is where the locals love to go!

We work hard to brew great craft beer and we've been recognized with over 70 awards for our handcrafted beers over the years. Come see what makes us so special!
