Take your meeting to the next level with a snack-tivity! Fun fact about our Cookie Decorating Station — it's available year-round with seasonal fruits, dried flowers (when available), and the cutest sprinkles in town! Special thanks to?Andrea White for capturing our Cookie Decorating Station and classic snacks in all of their glory at The Lowlands last month.

Next up for incredible women we are grateful to work with, Hoyo! Hoyo employs Somali women to make delicious sambusas that we carry on our menu year-round. "Hoyo", which means "mother" in Somali, was founded with the purpose of employing and empowering Somali women. They hire mothers to make one of their favorite dishes, the sambusa. This way, women are able to share a piece of their culture with the Twin Cities community while also providing for their families! Check out their website, you can purchase these sambusas at many co-ops and can of course choose them for your menu! https://lnkd.in/g-kCDEm5
