Starting a fresh new service in Perth in 2017 with the foundations established by many years of hospitality industry experience from the Northern part of Australia,
husband & wife team, Glen & Sherisse Tanonef,
joining their force together with their children
Shanell, Aliyah & Josiah, this family run business is set to become recognised as Perth's No. 1 Green Caterer!
Standing Fork Perth is committed to continually improving our environmental performance and to demonstrate
good environmental practices across all our operations.
We are working towards a number of goals to achieve Environmentally Sustainable Work Practises (ESWP) and the use of ECO-friendly materials in all facets of our catering services.
We recognise the importance of our part in protecting the environment and will minimise the environmental impact through our ESWP carried out in all aspects of our operations.
Hand in hand with our visions is offering fresh, organic and healthy food options for all guests at your next event,
including corporate functions, product launches,
office catering, grand openings, wakes, hens/bucks events, bridal showers, christenings, weddings, birthday parties
and any special occasion that requires
fresh, organic, raw and healthy food!
Standing Fork Perth prides itself on four 'R' principles:
- REDUCE - REUSE - RECYCLE - RAW -
(1)
Reduce
> Local sourcing
As a home-based business
(with a commercial mobile trailer kitchen
certified by the WA Health Department)
we reduce pollution affects of commuting to and from
a work location.
We also source local suppliers
in our area hence lowering food miles traveled
which typically means a reduced carbon footprint.
> Eco friendly and natural cleaning products
are used in all our food preparation,
cooking and cleaning systems to reduce negative
affects to the environment.
> Organic foods
Our menus and ingredients are at least 70% organic,
minimising sources of pollutants to the environment,
including waterways and soil quality)
(2)
Reuse
> All food storage requirements are reused and
maintained at a high standard
to meet all WA Government health regulations
in accordance with the Food Act 2008.
(3)
Recycle
> Food wastage, packaging and serving food ware
are eco-friendly and are
biodegradable and/or compostable.
(4)
Raw
> Raw foods including the items below,
are incorporated in our menus to focus on unprocessed,
whole plant-based and organic dishes to ensure the most healthiest and tastiest options for all your guests
attending your special event.
