We're Proud to be Green...

Canyons makes an ongoing effort to be environmentally conscious. We began several years ago with the move toward using flourescent lighting to conserve energy. Since, the effort has expanded to include converting the building's heating system to utilize used fryer oil to heat the air and water, and the use of compostable cups and to-go boxes. Some of our efforts save money while some others cost considerably more... but it's all worthwhile to conserve energy and help to preserve our environment. The most recent effort has been to start replacing kitchen equipment with more efficient units; the new grill which uses 50% less energy than the unit it replaced. Canyons has also been the first in the area to use paper, molded fiber and plastic products necessary to conserve water during our recent drought. Although presentation is not as nice as when we are able to use china, it's all for the greater good. We're always open to your suggestions as to how we can do more!
