Sustainability
PRACTICING STEWARDSHIP
“A nation that destroys its soils destroys itself. Forests are the lungs of our land, purifying the air and giving fresh strength to our people.”
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Dave's Gelato is located in one of the most beautiful parts of the country, northwest Montana. In a world dominated by plastic, we knew from the beginning we wanted to be as sustainable as possible.
​
We use compostable cups, spoons, and napkins. There are many benefits to this choice.
-
Compostable products are made from plant-based, renewable materials
-
Composting enriches soil nutrients
-
Composting increases soil's ability to keep moisture
-
Composting cuts down on the amount of trash in a landfill
-
Composting with a local commercial facility is good economically and environmentally.
Look for the Compostable Can
​
At markets we attend, dispose your cup, spoon, and napkin in our compostable can. Please do not put other trash in it.
Some markets we attend will also have compostable only cans - look for them - please place our cups, spoons, and napkins in them.
