Shastas' Green Grilling Tips

Shastas' Green Grilling Tips

Use propane. it is more resourceful and efficient to heat your meat and the least carbon polluting.

Use metal utensils and ceramic plates. Styrofoam, plastic, and paper may be convenient but they waste resources and don't break down when discarded.

Buy local meats and veggies. This will save on gas emissions while supporting the local economy.

Make pitchers of drinks. This will save on waste generated by plastic bottles and metal cans.

Illuminate your backyard with solar lights or bug resistant candles. Less CO2 output means many more nights under the clear night sky.

Green Valley Pathfinders
Here are a few of Green Valley's projects that we thought you would enjoy visiting during a day or overnight getaway. Whether you are looking for a relaxing stroll along a lake, or a day trip to the ocean with some shopping involved, we think you—and your dog!—will find something you like!

Pomo Bluffs Park 
This 25-acre park was recently designed and engineered by Green Valley. Pomo Bluffs is located off of Highway One in Fort Bragg and offers viewing overlooks of the Pacific Ocean, interpretive signage to learn the local history, and is nearby downtown Fort Bragg which offers great shopping and good food. The Park offers only day-time visiting but overnight accommodations are available at nearby parks and campgrounds. For more information on the park or the surrounding area visit: www.fortbragg.com

Riverfront Regional Park 
Nestled amongst the vineyards in Sonoma County, Riverfront Park is located on Eastside Road in Windsor, California. The Park is over 300-acres and includes picnicking, volleyball, and excellent walking trails as well as access to three year-round recreational lakes with large mouth bass fishing. When you are done enjoying the Park, head off to local wineries or restaurants to experience what Sonoma County is so famous for-wine!

Meet Us
The employees at Green Valley are committed to the communities and businesses it serves. As active professional members and officers of key industry organizations, Green Valley also makes it a priority to participate and interact directly with the community. What we are most proud of is that it is the employees that drive the volunteer and donation efforts for Green Valley. There are no requirements or business objectives we try to achieve as a firm, but rather it is the firm supporting the employees in their desire to give back. So, come on out and "meet us" at some of the locations we are either volunteering our time at and/or sponsoring.
