We now have 16 community investors out of our goal of 30!
These investments are not just aid to get us through the shutdown. This investment gives you a real stake in our worker owned/community owned business!

We are the only Black and brown, q***r and trans, worker owned cafe and roaster, and as one of our 30 investors you can help us continue to grow and thrive, and inspire others with our radically equitable model.

Thank you all for your support! Info is on our website http://alchemycollectivecafe.com/
