Dahlia Grove

💛 At Dahlia Grove, Community Café has always been about more than a meal — it’s about creating space for connection, dignity, and hope.

☀️ This week will be our final Community Café before we pause for the summer months, with plans to resume in late summer. We hope you’ll join us one more time before summer break to enjoy delicious food, meaningful community, and the mission we share together.

While Café may be pausing, our work is not slowing down! Our justice enterprise and care for the women in our program continue full steam ahead all summer long. Our women will be preparing products, building skills, and participating in meaningful social enterprise opportunities throughout the season.

🛍️ One of the best ways to continue supporting Dahlia Grove this summer is by visiting us at the Cotswold Farmers Market on Saturday mornings! Stop by our booth to shop products made with purpose, connect with our team, and continue investing in lives being restored and rebuilt.

Thank you for being part of this community and helping create opportunities for women to thrive. We can’t wait to gather around the table with you one more time this week — and then see you throughout the summer at the market! 🌿
