Sustainability is a priority at Glynwood. That is why we offer a carbon-neutral event space that is located on a certified organic farm that practices regenerative farming techniques.

Our Event Sustainability Initiatives:

  • We recommend caterers that try to use as much locally sourced food as possible, including meat and produce from our own farm, which minimizes transportation fuel emissions.

  • Our event space and our farm breakfast is completely carbon neutral through Zero Foodprint.

  • We offer a 1% model through Zero Foodprint to offset the carbon produced from your event.

  • We reduce waste by offering bulk toiletries in our guest rooms.

  • We use non-plastic, eco-friendly utensils.

  • There is energy-efficient lighting + digital smart thermometers throughout our event spaces.

  • We utilize non-toxic and eco-friendly cleaning supplies.

  • We work with our caterers to ensure waste is being properly sorted by compost, recycling and landfill.

  • We recommend like-minded and sustainable event vendors.

  • We use on-site compost and recycling systems for daily operations.


At Glynwood Center for Regional Food and Farming, our six-acre farm produces a diverse array of vegetables using regenerative practices: no-till and minimal-till cultivation, cover cropping, crop rotation, and four-season growing in high tunnels. Glynwood’s Animal Welfare Approved (AWA) livestock are raised on the farm and grown on intensively managed pasture rotations across 151 acres, where animals can exercise their natural grazing instincts and where soil health is the focus.


Our Certifications & Affiliations

Our farming practices are held to the highest standards, as reflected in our certifications and partnerships. Glynwood holds USDA Organic and Animal Welfare Approved certifications, and partners with Zero Food Print in our commitment to regenerative, climate-friendly farming.
