greenUP! - Reno/Sparks - Green Dining Program
The Reno-Sparks Chamber of Commerce has forged a remarkable collaboration with greenUP! to bring forth an innovative program called Green Dining Establishment. This program is modeled after the highly successful Green Dining initiative by greenUP! in Carson City. The partnership offers Chamber Member businesses an exceptional opportunity to receive free technical support and guidance. They can learn how to minimize waste, reduce expenses, and gain community recognition. The program's flagship establishments include renowned names such as Buenos Grill, Squeeze In, Great Full Gardens, and the Great Basin Brewing Company. These establishments are spread across Reno and Sparks and have set a benchmark for other businesses to follow.

Squeeze In
The restaurant that particularly caught our attention of the Reno/Sparks Green Dining four, is Squeeze In. Squeeze In is at the forefront of the Green Box To-Go program - a revolutionary initiative designed to reduce the use of single-use takeout containers in commercial restaurants. As part of this program, Squeeze In's Carson City, Northwest Reno, and Sparks locations are currently piloting the project. By engaging loyal customers and promoting sustainable practices, Squeeze In is making a positive impact on the environment. Customers can easily sign up for this program either in-store or online, further contributing to this commendable cause.
