Sustainability

We’re one of the largest conference centers and learning and development campuses in the United States, so we make a big impact. That’s why we’ve implemented sustainable policies that encourage our staff to think green and drive our entire organization to reduce its impact on the environment.

Locally Sourced

At The National, we’ve made the environmentally conscious decision to buy locally — even when it’s tough. Our BUYVA (Buy Virginia) initiative means that, for every purchase we make, we give priority to providers from Loudoun County and Virginia. It’s the reason you’ll find local brands of tea in our dining room and farm fresh, locally grown food on all of our menus.
