We are thrilled to announce some exciting changes to your dining experience at the UMD Food Court! Starting soon, you will have new options for enjoying your meals, designed to save you money and help us all be more sustainable.
Dine In or Take Out? The Choice is Yours!
Dine-In Option:
Enjoy Your Meal Here: Your food will be served on reusable plates, bowls, or wire baskets at no additional cost.
Take-Out Options:
Single-Use Compostable Container: For a small fee per order. (Did you know your compost is pulped on site and helps support the community compost at WLSSD)
Reusable Program: Unlimited use for a one-time buy-in fee.
What Does That Mean For You?
Financial Responsibility: We've updated our pricing structure to give you the power of choice. Previously, the cost of compostable containers was included in your food price meaning you paid for it whether you wanted it or not. By choosing the reusable or dine-in option it keeps your costs lower.
Savings for You: With these new choices, you can save money and enjoy flexibility in how you dine.
Sustainability: By reducing single-use waste, we’re making a positive impact on our environment together.
We appreciate your support as we continue to enhance your dining experience while being mindful of our environmental impact. If you have any questions or need more information, please don't hesitate to reach out to our team.
Thank you for dining with us and supporting our commitment to being a leader in sustainability!
