Barnes Restaurant

Description

Barnes has always utilized environmentally conscious materials and practices to reduce their impact and keep costs down - allowing them to pass the savings on to the customer. Here's just a few of the ways: Efficiently allocating resources - reducing and reusing every way possible. Recycling glass, plastic, and paper - and for the last 5 years recycling in the city container on our premises. Reducing electrical consumption with efficient light bulbs and diligently conserving energy in our offices. Composting all food scraps at the Trustees Garden. "Its not a trendy thing; we were brought up this way - it was a means of survival, and being aware of our impact." - Owners Hugh and Alan Barnes Our Community... Barnes Restaurants and family take great pride in actively participating in their community. Although we aren't positioned to match the massive contributions some large corporations make to charities; Barnes makes every effort to help where they can. Whether we donate pans of food, gift certificates, or monetary donations; we try to contribute to those in need. Even through the regular donations we make to the Savannah City Mission food bank, Goodwill, the Habitat for Humanity Restore; we give back to the community in every way we can. "We don't do it for the recognition; we do it because we are part of the community and we care about our neighbors. Lots of needy organizations fly under the radar and fall short on donations." - Owners Hugh and Alan Barnes
