“Beyond the Garden Café Expands Hours to Include Dinner and Art”
CRAFTSBURY, VT– Beyond the Garden Cafe, with its emphasis on local, organic, creative fare, is expanding its hours to include dinner twice a week and is arranging to have local artisans display their work throughout the restaurant. Beginning October 11th, the café will open its doors Thursday through Saturday for lunch, brunch on Sundays and dinner on Fridays and Saturdays. Local crafts and gift items will be for sale in the gift shop alongside revolving showcases of paintings, ceramic art and photographs from local artists.
As summer comes to an end and fall foliage is at its peak, Beyond the Garden Café is looking to expand its horizons during the colder months, even as other places begin the process of shutting down. With the idea that the local community would enjoy a place to congregate in the evenings, where good food and familiar faces would be welcome in the cold, dark months of winter, the Café decided to be open for dinners, starting with two nights a week. “Our goal is to be open most of the week by the time summer comes back around”, says Cheyanne Thompson, “and along with the expanded hours, offer music, community events and showcase local art.” Elena Gustavson, who recently joined Cheyanne as a partner in the cafe says, “We want to create a place where local talent has a home. Whereas some are seasoned and established and some are up-and-coming, there are many waiting to be discovered too! We want to give them a space that is comfortable and accessible, where our guests who come to enjoy our food can also come to find and learn about incredible art in their own backyard.”
Beyond the Garden Café is hoping to realize the dreams of good, local food in a close-knit community while keeping its doors open in the winter months. With art, food and events to foster, the future is wide open.
