About us

For years we have been dreaming about opening a restaurant in our small town that serves as a sort of sanctuary. A place where people of all ages can come together, relax and enjoy an always fresh from scratch meal that is approachably priced and made as much from locally sourced ingredients as possible. We want to create a space where people can share a sense of pride when they dine knowing that it's supporting others that they have personal relationships with and in turn we hope to cultivate a deeper sense of connection among them. In order to execute this goal, we will have to build a team that operates much the same way our family does when growing our food. A "restaurant family" that shares our excitement for creating a culinary experience that brings people together again and again! We want to share our understanding of how food influences health and wellness with our staff and teach them basic skills for preparing healthy food at home so that they may share those skills with their own families. We believe that food and its preparation is this universal thing that can bring all people together. An artform that nurtures both the body and the soul.
