Green statement: 
'Since taking on the The Traddock Hotel Yorkshire we have always had a passion for sustainability and work hard at being an eco friendly hotel. In 2006 we won the Soil Association Organic Restaurant of the Year and were runners up in 2007 – we have used local, seasonal and where possible, organic produce at the heart of our menus since our inception in 2002. We have enjoyed developing a strong working relationship with many excellent local farmers and groups who are all also committed to quality and sustainable farming practices. All our suppliers are as local as possible so that food miles are kept to a minimum.'

What's green about ....: 
Here at The Traddock we have implemented many sustainability measures within the business, especially in relation to our award winning food and restaurant.  Our wine list has 45% (and growing) of either organic or bio-dynamic wines.  We have installed a water purifier that allows us to provide cost effective local still and sparkling water in reusable but stylish branded litre bottles. Our kitchen oil is collected by a local community cooperative group who recycle the oil into Bio-diesel and they compost most of the vegetable and garden waste which is used to fertilise the vegetable patch and garden.We have created our own herb and vegetable garden that provides some of our herbs, vegetables and garnish and also work with Growing with Grace a local organic growing cooperative 2 miles away, who also provide us with freshly picked seasonal vegetables.
