A brief description of the sustainable food and beverage purchasing program:

Elon Dining Services supports local farmers and the community and has implemented a preferential purchasing system that identifies local produce items and the area from which they originate. Preference is placed on food grown within our area, state and then region of the country, in that order. The current sustainable food and beverage percentage is 8.72%. Fair Trade Coffee is sold at all retail locations on campus.
