Our new space in Brighton is home to Livingston County's first and only pay-it-forward cafe, a place that serves fresh, high quality food to everyone, regardless of story, circumstance, or financial means. This unique cafe features optional pricing on our menu, so that those who need to be blessed by a free meal can receive one with dignity, and those who have the means to be a blessing others can make a donation that covers their meal in addition to perhaps the meal of someone else It is a hub for hospitality and generosity, providing a special space where the entire community can gather and help make a difference in the lives of others.
​
​We are currently in our 'soft opening' stage with a limited menu and limited hours (currently Tues. and Thurs. from 8:30-1:30). In order to control the number of guests that we serve each day, while we train our staff, we are also currently operating by reservation only. Reserve a seat to dine with us HERE.
​
The cafe will operate using primarily volunteers. If you would like to help us greet guests, serve drinks/food, bus tables, do dishes, clean, garden, etc, join one of our upcoming volunteer orientation meeting to learn more.

During cafe hours beautiful space features a glass gathering room that can be rented out for small meetings or lunches during the week. On evenings and weekends, when the cafe is not operating, the main dining room will become available for rent as well for private parties. Rental bookings are now being accepted. Rates and details available HERE.​
