DINGMANS FERRY — The Pocono Environmental Education Center now has a locally owned company, Green Feed Catering, providing year-round food service operations for the center’s guests and visitors. Green Feed at PEEC is headed by local residents, Colleen Messing and LoriAnn Hines. Messing has a background in business administration, in addition to a variety of culinary classes. Hines managed a private club and owned a restaurant/café prior to joining the team at Green Feed. Hines brings thirty years of culinary experience to the catering staff. Green Feed Catering does a variety of culinary creations ranging from small backyard barbecues to weddings. “It’s an opportunity to be creative,” said Messing. Many other events they cater to include graduations, anniversaries, and bar mitzvahs. The center’s full service, award winning dining hall provides Green Feed with the perfect venue for many functions and events. Green Feed made its debut at the center’s Earth Day Celebration this past April providing a complete day long picnic with a well balanced menu that received rave reviews from the hundreds of participants. They now take their creativity to a whole new level with providing healthy meals to the many school groups at PEEC. They provide well-balanced meals using fresh produce to produce many items including their own flatbread pizza, a variety of chicken dishes as well as vegetarian meals. Green Feed caters to many diets providing options for vegan and kosher meals. They also provide special meals for people with allergic restrictions. Green Feed Catering fits in perfectly with PEEC’s mission to enhance environmental awareness, knowledge and appreciation through hands-on experience in a natural outdoor classroom.
