Washington, D.C. | July 26, 2012
The foodies of D.C. have spoken, and the most popular “green” restaurant in the city this year is Founding Farmers. After two rounds of online and mobile voting, the People’s Choice 2012 Nature’s Plate Award came to a close with Founding Farmers reigning supreme in the D.C. metro area.
In order to receive this honor, Founding Farmers beat out three local eateries that have connections and commitments to sustainability and green practices: Busboys and Poets, Restaurant Nora, and Sonoma Restaurant and Wine Bar.
“We are thrilled to be recognized as the first People's Choice Nature's Plate Award Winner for Washington, D.C.," said Dan Simons, concept developer and managing principal of Founding Farmers. "What's more valuable to us is that our guests appreciate our beliefs and our dedication to sustainability, and for that, we are very grateful.”
