How We Started

At Purslane, we're more than just a catering company – we're an extension of the Oberon Group, a neighborhood-focused restaurant group with a strong commitment to sustainability.

Purslane began when customers of our first restaurant, Rucola, flooded our team with requests for catering services, eager to share our delicious, seasonal food with their communities. As demand grew, we recognized an opportunity to not only expand our reach but also to make a meaningful impact in an industry known for its wastefulness.

Inspired by the enthusiasm of our customers and driven by our own values, we embarked on a mission to revolutionize the events industry. We are proud to be New York's first Scope 3 certified carbon-neutral catering company and an active participant in the circular economy. With every event we cater, we are setting a new standard for sustainability, proving that exceptional cuisine and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand.

Join us as we transform the way people experience catered events, one unforgettable meal at a time. Together, we can make a positive impact on our community and the planet.
