We work together to continually develop and implement sustainable solutions. Through Green Thread, our environmental sustainability platform, we bring innovative and efficient solutions to life. We are passionately focused on reducing the environmental impact within our operations. Here are just a few ways we work to make our campus more environmentally conscious.
Reusable To-Go Containers
To-go Policy
- UCF Dining green reusable to-go containers can be purchased in '63 South and Knightro's for $5.
- Students are permitted to use 1 meal swipe to eat in the UCF Dining Halls ('63 South or Knightro's) or fill their to-go container.
- No outside reusable food and beverage containers will be permitted at any of the UCF Dining locations.
Local Purchasing
Did you know Dining Services sources food from many local farmers, growers and distributors? The list changes throughout the year depending on seasonality and availability.
Recycling
We are committed to minimizing our environmental footprint. Look for signs in our locations for information on where to put your recyclables.
