weddings at the pines calyx
how to green your wedding
The Pines Calyx has several green features:
We have natural air-conditioning system. The sea air and garden air naturally flows into the building via an underground pipe.
We use eco friendly cleaning products in the kitchen and all our food waste goes to an appropriate compost heap.
All our bottles, plastic, cardboard and tins are taken away and ethically recycled.
Our gardens have been run organically since the spring 2002. This is far more than just using herbicides and pesticides but working in harmony with the natural systems, composting, recycling waste materials and learning how to use natural predators to control pests.
A fine feature in our garden is our organic kitchen garden with over 40 different species of fruit and vegetables from the exotic to the familiar.
green wedding catering
Use organic, seasonal, local and fairtrade food where possible. All our carefully selected caterers can provide you with menus which incorporate this.
