Local & Sustainable
Our restaurant would never exist without support from our local community in the form of micro loans and so much more. We are dedicated to supporting a local thriving economy and environment and to serving the healthiest, tastiest and that means freshest food to you, our beloved community.

Our Kitchen Garden

In December 2010, the Crop Mob broke ground on our beautiful, abundant kitchen garden. Since then, head farmer, Peter Brayshaw, land owner, Liane Salgado, sustainability coordinator, Rob Jones, and various volunteers keep the garden growing green, red, purple, golden and delicious!
