Don’t Panic

While we want to take the utmost precautions against the spread of COVID-19, we also want to make sure our decisions are based on facts and recommendations from health professionals. Our business supports local restaurants, whom support workers from wait staff, cooks, dishwashers to service providers such as local farms and distributors and more. Currently, if you are not feeling unwell, it is considered safe to go out to eat and enjoy events in small groups. While also taking the utmost precautions with frequent hand washing and covering your mouth with your elbow when you cough or sneeze, and avoid shaking hands. We hope to see you on a tour soon and help us support the local economy.
