Crafted Greens is dedicated to serving the freshest ingredients possible, and everything they serve is sourced from local farms! For example, their chicken comes from the Pitman Family Farm, where the chickens are fed an organic vegetarian diet and are able to live a free range, cage free life. Their cows are also strictly grass fed and are able to roam freely around the farm, rather than trapped in small pens. Their salmon and ahi tuna is also wild caught and are sustainably sourced from the ocean, rather than from a fish farm. A few of the delicious items on the menu are a tuscan salmon sandwich, grilled veggie sandwich, and even a cheese flatbread pizza! The options are endless and you are sure to find a delicious and healthy dish.
