Carmens Group: Our commitment to Sustainability

At Carmens Group, we’re proud to be taking meaningful steps toward a more sustainable future. These efforts aren’t just about how we operate today—they’re about ensuring that you, our guests, can enjoy memorable experiences with us that also support a greener tomorrow. Across our venues, we’ve introduced initiatives that reduce waste, conserve resources, and bring our operations closer to environmentally responsible hospitality.

These efforts represent just the beginning. As we grow, so does our responsibility to protect the environment, and we are committed to building a greener, more sustainable future for our community and our guests.

  • Innovation in waste-to-energy: We’re exploring opportunities to recycle organic waste into renewable energy, reducing our footprint even further.
  • On-site gardens: Fresh herbs and seasonal produce grown at our properties contribute to more local, sustainable, and flavourful dining experiences.
  • Sustainable winemaking: Our winery operations are working toward sustainability certification through the Ontario Craft Wineries Association.
  • Food waste diversion: Through composting partnerships, we’ve reallocated 100% of food and compostable waste from some of our venues, diverting as much as 60% of total waste from landfill.
  • Green Key Certification: We’re proud to be Green Key certified and actively working toward higher levels of certification across our properties.
  • Recycling at scale: Together, our venues divert the equivalent of 720 yards of recycling annually—that’s about five times the area of a football field—from landfill.
  • Reducing single-use plastics: By switching from amenity bottles to in-room dispensers, we’re saving over 4,000 bottles each month from landfills.
