Food for Thought on Earth Day

Ours is not the task of fixing the entire world at once,

but of stretching out to mend the part of the world that is within our reach.

Introducing our innovative chef & urban farmer: Chef Adam Navidi

Happy 2013!

All of us at green2go are looking forward to this new and exciting year.

We have partnered with Chef Adam Navidi, who is not only a celebrated and accomplished chef, but an innovative urban farmer who grows all his produce here in Brea, organically via aquaponic systems at Future Foods Farms!

During the past seven months in our spot in Brea, we have been rewarded over and over again with grateful, happy guests. Thank you all for your continued support.  We hope you will LOVE what we have in store for you this coming year!

Chef Adam Navidi brings the highest level of integrity to our kitchen.  We are now establishing the most sustainable restaurant around (we even recycle our aluminum foil into balls for the farm to keep the birds away!) We are planning to have a green2go farmer's market in our place where you can come choose an assortment of organically grown produce, including highly nutritious microgreens!

We are now working on creating a more efficient restaurant operation, and Chef Adam is preparing to begin farming produce such as his organic lettuce and wheatgrass in our spot!

Please bear with us while we work on all these exciting and unusual changes, and please visit us in Brea next time you are nearby. We have SO much to share and SO much delicious, truly clean & healthy food to offer!

Please note our new hours of operation ~ We are now closed on Mondays and Tuesdays in order to spend time on the farm planting and harvesting and getting ready to prepare our truly healthy and fully sustainable offerings for all our wonderful guests.

In the meantime, here is a short interview of Chef Adam Navidi regarding his aquaponic farm!

Being incredibly thankful.

5 years ago today, the idea of green2go restaurants was born. 

After much learning and growing, struggles and LOTS of laughter and fun, we are now alive and kicking in Brea.

We highly value the quality or state of being grateful and thankful ~ and what comes from such places. 

Please know that we are SO grateful and thankful every day for ALL the wonderful support we receive from all of you!

Enjoy this Thanksgiving day, and we hope to see you soon and also know that we have SO much more great stuff in the works to share with all of you!

THANK YOU!

The terrible problem with Soft Drinks

The unhappy truth about soda and other sugary drinks: these terribly unhealthy sugar drinks are now the largest source of calories in our American diet!
