Mountain Crust Launches Dinner Series Benefitting Zero Foodprint
Mountain Crust & Zero Foodprint
Mountain Crust Pizza & Catering has launched a new Field to Fork Dinner (FTF) Series benefitting Zero Foodprint. On multiple dates this Spring, their chefs will be creating a 5-course menu featuring locally grown and raised ingredients from Colorado’s finest farms. 50% of profits from FTF dinner sales will go to Zero Foodprint to continue our work providing grants to farms implementing climate-smart practices.
"Mountain Crust and Zero Foodprint are a match made in heaven. As a zero-waste catering company, we have always strived to lessen catering's negative impact in an already wasteful industry. By partnering with Zero Foodprint, we hope we can make more positive changes when it comes to regenerative farming practices and climate change."

About Zero Foodprint Membership
Mountain Crust’s Dinner series is one of the many ways businesses choose to donate funds to Zero Foodprint. In addition to donating profits form event series, restaurants and food businesses can choose to become Zero Foodprint Members through a commitment to ongoing contributions in their regular operations.
Zero Foodprint began as an effort for restaurants to reduce and eventually zero out their climate impacts. After crunching all the numbers, one thing was clear: the vast majority of the emissions inherent in a meal happen before the ingredients ever make it to the restaurant or processing facility. Food and beverage production accounts for more than 1/3 of global emissions - but it doesn’t have to be that way.
We can change the way that food is grown. By directly funding practices like compost application, managed grazing, and cover-cropping, Zero Foodprint members team up with farmers to create healthier soil, which makes more delicious, nutritious, and resilient crops while also conserving water and drawing down carbon.
Zero Foodprint (ZFP) is a nonprofit organization restoring the climate, one acre at a time. We believe that by regenerating soil, local food economies can play a critical role in reversing the global climate crisis. We work with food and beverage businesses, philanthropy and government to bring the next dollar to implement the next regenerative practice on the next acre. This regenerative economy benefits every person who grows food, every person who sells food, and every person on this planet who eats food.
