Sustainability
Back to the Resort
At Naturally Pacific Resort, sustainability is at the heart of every decision we make. From local food and waste reduction to forest conservation and circular systems, we’re committed to creating a stay that’s both comfortable and environmentally responsible.
Our Garden: Pacific Patch
At Pacific Patch, our 22,500ft2 garden supplies fresh herbs, vegetables, and garnishes directly to our team at Carve Kitchen + Meatery, Velocity Lounge & Driving Range, and Sunset Terrace Patio + Grill. Every bit of what we grow is used exclusively within these spaces, reflecting our commitment to a truly hyper-local dining experience. While seasonal changes affect availability, our garden is cultivated without synthetic pesticides. Thanks to our greenhouse, we transition smoothly from warm-season to cold-season crops, aiming to harvest fresh produce year-round.
Sustainable Composting
We operate a small-scale composting program focused on pre-consumer kitchen scraps and green waste from our groundskeeping team. This compost enriches the soil in our garden beds, helping us close the loop on food production and significantly reducing waste. Currently, we divert approximately 8,000 pounds of food scraps annually from landfill.
Our Bees
Naturally Pacific Resort proudly supports two thriving on-site beehives. These hardworking bees play a crucial role in pollinating our garden’s herbs, vegetables, and flowers, helping us grow healthy, flavourful produce naturally. Beyond enhancing our harvest, the bees contribute to the local ecosystem and biodiversity. We carefully nurture our hives to keep them strong and productive throughout the seasons.
Our Initiatives
