sweetgreen is a destination for real food. We believe the choices we make every day about what we eat, where it comes from, and how it’s made have a lasting impact on our communities. From the seed to the store, we’re involved in every step of the supply chain, working with partners and farmers we know and trust. We make our food from scratch in each sweetgreen every day, using whole produce delivered that morning. As sweetgreen grows, we’re dedicated to working with the right people. We’ve built a team of over 5,000 hardworking individuals who care about developing future leaders and live our core values daily. We meet farmers before we meet landlords. We turn our new neighbors into friends. We’re building a brand that connects to local neighborhoods and leaves communities better off than we found them. Our mission is to inspire healthier communities, by connecting people to real food. With over 220 locations across PA, MA, DMV, NY, CA, IL, TX, CO, and FL, we’ve worked hard to build a company with passion and purpose - and we’re just getting started.
