Materials Recycling and Conservation
Through innovative material management, we strive to reduce waste and promote sustainability:
- Recycling Programs: Convenient recycling stations are available throughout the property.
- Eco-Friendly Products: We have transitioned to compostable and recyclable paper products and replaced plastic golf tees with compostable alternatives.
- Recycling Initiatives:
- Kitchen recycling: We recycle used cooking oil from our kitchens.
- Golf ball recovery: To reduce waste, lost golf balls are recovered by professional divers from our lake adjacent to Mountain #4, and Ventana Canyon staff and volunteers regularly collect golf balls from the desert terrain along the fairways and greens.
- Sustainable Purchasing: We prioritize environmentally friendly products, including recycled paper, cutlery made from plant starch, straws from agave, plastic cups from recycled plastic, and options such as eco-friendly coffee pods for lodge guests.
