At The Bugle Boy, environmental responsiblity goes hand in hand with good business. We try to conserve natural resources and minimize waste; to encourage energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources; and to inspire discussion and action by our customers.
What We Do at The Bugle Boy
Recycle glass, plastic, cardboard and aluminum
Minimize waste by using washable dishes and utensils and reusable grocery bags. No styrofoam products used on site! Our to-go cups are made of compostable paper.
Cut down on single-use plastic bottles, and conserve water, by offering complimentary water from our Air2Water machine. The Air2Water machine uses revolutionary technology to generate drinking water from ambient humidity. (Interested in buying your own Air2Water machine? Contact our distributor, and be sure to mention the Bugle Boy so that your purchase helps to support our activities.)
