    Flour is well on our way to becoming a greener bakery and cafe.  We've just joined the Green Restaurant Association and over the course of the next few months we'll be meeting with members from the GRA to learn how we can improve our operations so that they are more environmentally friendly.  Once we've implemented their suggestions we'll be a certified green restaurant.  Check out the website at www.dinegreen.com.  Thank you to Chef Corey for leading the way on this initiative!
