My Friends,
On September 8, 2021, we opened the doors to Terroir General Store with a simple dream: to create a space rooted in community, local foods, and heart.
Thanks to you- my customers, neighbors, and friends- this dream became a reality. You brought life into this vision, supported local makers, allowed me to share my food with you and turned Terroir into something truly special.
With a saddened heart, I am writing to share that I will be closing the storefront. Several factors brought me to this decision, some of those outside of my control. I was hopeful for a renovation and rebirth, however as a tenant of the space I am not in control of the current condition and future plans of the building we reside in. I look forward to the Bewley Building becoming a vibrant building in our downtown. The forthcoming purchase and renovations will secure this building as a functional piece of downtown Lockport for future residents. This timing of my closing was not planned, I find myself without an option to stay open with structural issues at hand. However, I am accepting it as a moment for personal growth and peace.
While this chapter is coming to a close, the community we have built will always be in play. I will continue to host specialty dinners at partner locations, do special events and markets, hold sales on the website and see you in many new forms.
We have two Bodega Supper Clubs scheduled for this month and seats are still available to both. I will also be hosting a Harvest Dinner at Buffalo Distilling Company at 860 Seneca St. Buffalo on October 2.
Our final day will be Saturday October 4 as part of the Cozy Fall Book Crawl and we’ll be offering coffee bar drinks, baked goods, and a shop garage sale of odds and ends inventory.
I will miss this place and the ability to see you all on a regular basis, this is our collective third space as well as my constant home while my life fell apart and was put back together. You were all so meaningful to me in these years and I am forever grateful.
With love and deep gratitude,
Jessica
Owner, Terroir General Store
