PJ taste Sustainability and Environmental Awareness
With 37 solar panels, 2 electric delivery vans and a planned approach to sourcing local and sustainable food, environmental issues have always been at the heart of PJ taste.
PJ taste are committed to producing and serving food in as environmentally sustainable way as possible. Our electric delivery vans are solar powered and many of our ingredients are sourced from local farmers and producers.
As our shared values say: "We actively care for and look to minimise any negative impact on the environment. We do this by generating ideas and finding ways of becoming more environmentally friendly. Being conscious when it comes to resources, waste and utilities. We minimise food waste, compost our organic waste, embrace nose to tail" cooking and find ways to create value from available resources".
We have two electric delivery vans which are charged via the 37 solar panels on the roof of our production kitchen at 54 Staniforth Road. Our increasingly production growing programmes already supplies all our edible flowers as well as unusual fruits and herbs. Our regenerative forest garden produces perennial crops such as organic apples, pears and quince alongside more unusual crops such as Medlar and Sichuan Peppercorns.
In addition we support a number of local institutions including being corporate members of the Sheffield Wildlife Trust.
