I'm not sure if this is supported by default (please correct me if I'm 
wrong), but it should be fairly easy to hack. I'd add the following line 
to your torrc:

Log err file /dev/null

which would produce the minimum amount of output (fatal errors only), 
all of which would be immediately discarded. I'd also add --quiet to 
whatever command you have starting Tor, which will suppress the console 
messages that are produced before the torrc is parsed.
