Business Commitments

Our ingredients are 100% organic, and sourced from local farmers, wherever possible. We appreciate to hear from local farmer and gardeners interested in selling to us. Our cuisine is vegan, compared to meats which require up to 23 times as much water to produce per pound.

We use cloth napkins and silverware for dine-in customers and provide compostable containers, cups, flatware, and bags made of corn for our take-out customers. Some of furnishings and fixtures are antiques or purchased pre-owned.

We used Benajmin Moore Aura Wall Paint, the most environmentally friendly paint on the market. Our color laser jet printer, the Kyocera ECO 170, is the most environmentally friendly printer on the market. We provide wall space for local artists to exhibit their creations.

Approximately 90% of our waste is recycled — 1/2 as clean organic fruit and vegetable pulp, which we give to anyone who asks for it, and the other 1/2 as recyclable plastics, glass and metals.

Our name, “Borboleta” is Portuguese for “butterfly” – a symbol of transformation and joy. We believe that our living cuisine will transform the way you experience food, and that our fresh and flavorful creations will bring joy and vibrance to your life.  -  Virginia Morgan, BORBOLETA GOURMET LLC

I will start unplugging my computer, cell phone charger, and start looking for a manual push lawn mower (the old fashion kind where you have the blades spinning) to buy since my gas one broke on me. Does anybody know where you can find these antiques? roger@emeraldcityaustin.com  - EMERALD CITY AUSTIN

I currently have a small printing company. I am looking for something to do that is new, something different than the printing business which I have been involved for the last 32 years . A new business that will have an impact on reducing carbon emissions. I am currently working on an idea that may have this kind of impact.  - BUSINESS PRINTING PLUS
Being conscious of the impact of my actions–and continuing to teach that to my children! We have chickens and the coop is on top of our compost pile, so we have a great eco-system in our back yard–and our garden. And my children earn their allowance by selling the extra eggs to the neighbors!  - CARBON SHRINKS
