Eco-Friendly & Green Initiatives

Sustainability at La Pera Catering

At La Pera Catering, we believe that exceptional cuisine goes hand in hand with responsible business practices. Our commitment to sustainability is woven into every aspect of our operations, from sourcing ingredients to event execution. We take pride in minimizing our environmental footprint while delivering fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented dishes.

Responsible & Local Sourcing

We prioritize high-quality, locally sourced ingredients wherever we can to ensure freshness and support our regional food ecosystem. By partnering with Texas farmers, ranchers, and artisanal producers, we reduce our carbon footprint while fostering a sustainable supply chain. Our menus are designed around seasonal availability, allowing us to highlight the best flavors our region has to offer while maintaining ethical sourcing practices.

Local Partnerships

La Pera Catering collaborates with a network of local businesses and organizations that share our commitment to sustainability. From working with nearby bakeries and dairies to sourcing eco-friendly event materials, we continuously seek ways to strengthen our community through responsible partnerships. Our relationships with nonprofit organizations also allow us to contribute to important causes that align with our values.

Recycling & Composting Practices

Sustainability extends beyond our ingredients. At our preparation facilities and on-site at events, we implement recycling and composting programs to minimize waste. We actively separate recyclables, compost food scraps, and use biodegradable or reusable serviceware whenever possible. By doing so, we significantly reduce landfill contributions and promote a circular approach to waste management.

Community Engagement & Support

Giving back is at the heart of La Pera Catering. We engage with local nonprofits, schools, and community initiatives to support food security, education, and environmental sustainability efforts. Whether through donations, disaster relief, volunteer efforts, or hosting fundraising events, we are dedicated to making a positive impact in Austin and beyond.

Our commitment to sustainability is an ongoing journey, and we continuously seek innovative ways to enhance our practices. At La Pera Catering, we are proud to serve delicious food that not only nourishes our clients but also respects the planet and our local community.

Join us in creating a more sustainable future—one plate at a time.
