At Hawksmoor House we support SUSTAINABLE TOURISM and embrace GREEN INITIATIVES that are kind to our environment, grow our communities and preserve our heritage for future generations.
Sustainable Food Chains
- We have a luscious vegetable & herb garden that we use produce from in our dishes to encourage a farm to table style of living. All of our food waste is put into a compost heap that we use to fertilise our beautiful gardens and orchards.
- We abide by a sustainable purchasing policy, where we source our products and produce from local suppliers; in this way we can continue to build up our community.
Support Local Communities
