Green at the Garage

While we love what we do, we recognize that our industry takes a huge toll on our (only) planet. We’ve partnered with caterers, shelters, climate organizations, and scientists to minimize our carbon footprint... and we don't charge an arm and a leg to do it. Our sets are green but for the fraction of the price when compared to your standard “green set." Being green and doing good shouldn't be cost prohibitive. Our plans are fully integrated into the way we work already, because, well… we care. The impact is huge and the cost is small. 

            Green at The Garage is one of the first of its kind; 
        an initiative that holds us accountable with actionable
                       items that minimally affect the price tag.

 

Here are just a few things we’re doing:

  • Outfitted with water taps, we’ve eliminated single-use water bottles and utensils entirely.
  • We’re working with GoClimate to offset our carbon emissions on each and every shoot.
  • We’ve almost entirely eliminated food waste; partnering with local communities to feed those who need it most (and not our garbage cans!)
  • We offer an in-studio hydroponic garden that serves as a carbon-positive tool for our food stylists, and even nibbles for our clients and team.

 

Have questions? Please reach out to halie@the-garage.tv. She’d really love to talk to you about it.
