Anyone have a Sweet Green in their neighborhood? I want to believe that these guys are transparent with their supply chain, but I've grown so cynical about labels lately that I can't let myself trust that a national chain with a $1B valuation last year could possibly use nothing but fresh, local ingredients daily on such a large scale. I want to believe, though.

"and we source locally where possible"

That should answer the question for you. Presumably their distance-sourced products are sustainably grown/harvested too.

I wonder if the problem of ripeness in non-native produce will ever be solved.
