Urban Green launches new Avant-Garden Pizza
On January 15, 2012, Urban Green Cuisine launches a new line of savory pizza with select produce harvested from urban farms and procured from local produce located throughout Southern California. The new pizza line reinforces Urban Green Cuisines’ commitment to the localized food movement and healthy living with the launch of a pizza that provides balanced nutrition. These on-site baked flat bread pizzas provide farmers’ market guests a fresh alternative to the usual prepared food offering, contain locally grown herbs and vegetables, and will initially come in three simple options vegan, vegetarian, and meat.
“We are thrilled to introduce this Urban Green Cuisine line extension at the Mar Vista Farmers’ Market – an offering we believe mirrors the taste and values of this active Westside community,” said, Rickey Smith, Principal & Founder, Urban Green LLC. We are especially excited to cultivate perennial herbs native to California such as Oxalis albicans commonly know as California Yellow sorrel to create new and exciting flavors to the traditional pizza.
Urban Green LLC is a Los Angeles based company committed to serving "conscious" consumers by using our business to connect the inter-related disciplines of cuisine, land use, environment, architecture and renewable energy sources into long-term solutions to improve the agricultural sustainability in the urban environment. We are dedicated to the restoration and development of “green space” in the communities we serve by empowering the diverse people and stakeholders who inhabit our urban environment.
Urban Green LLC uses sustainable and recycled material throughout our production process. We support local organic farmers as well as operate our own urban farming program. We select seed, plant, grow and harvest produce for our cuisine line in several urban farms, rooftop gardens located throughout Southern California. We make every attempt to use reusable and biodegradable containers for our food and beverage products, organic produce in our cuisine, and renewable energy sources in our operation.
