The past few days since we shared that our lease wasn’t renewed have been…everything. Heartening, heartbreaking, overwhelming, uplifting, exhausting. If you saw me cry at the register, thank you for letting me have a moment (and for politely looking away). I wish I could hug every one of you (even though I’m not usually a hug person) and tell you it’s going to be okay. I believe that. We’re just not there yet.
You’ve shown up in the kindest, funniest, most human ways—“I saw the post,” “I’m so sorry,” or a few well-placed expletives. You’ve shared ideas, memories, and so much love for Juneberry. It’s meant more than I can say.
We are incredibly grateful. Truly. You’ve reminded us of what this space has meant and brought so much light to a really hard moment.
Many of you have asked how to help. We’re working on a new location (things are promising!), but we’ll need to close for a bit during the transition. That pause, plus buildout costs, means we need help keeping our team paid and together. We’ve set up a fundraiser for those of you who've asked how you can help. 100% goes directly to staff wages while we’re closed. Also, we had to "photoshop" Seth into the fundraiser photo...and I think we created a masterpiece.
If you’re able to donate, thank you. Thank you for caring, for showing up, and for being part of this. We can't wait to share everything we're scheming up.
With so much gratitude,
Paige + the Juneberries
