Last Week We Got The Chance to Cook for Billie Eilish and Her Crew
As many of you know, Billie Eilish is a massive singer- songwriter and vegan influencer. Her most recent tour Hit me hard and soft is all about sustainability and pushing the vegan movement. We are honored to be part of her vision and ecstatic on the feedback from the Party. We catered our signature Buffalo Cauliflower Bites, Japchae Noodles, Lions Mane Katsu Sliders and as a bonus and thank you to Billie for having us, we baked her favorite Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies.
She absolutely ROCKED The SAP Center in San Jose. Definitely one of the loudest crowd-cheering shows and we got to enjoy part of it; talk about icing on the cake!! It was easily our favorite day of work ever! Check out the video highlights below.

 An Innovative Collaboration to Help Our Local Essential WorkersIt's no secret the restaurant industry has been hit hard by the pandemic. And our local hospital workers have been working around the clock to keep up with the demand for healthcare services - saving lives and keeping the community safe. Unfortunately, the staff at our nearby facilities, St. Louise Hospital and the DePaul Center, often do not have access to a cafeteria for health and safety reasons. Lucky for us a local non-profit saw away to help both of these groups of essential workers.
 The Mercury News Reader’s Choice Poll Opens on November 27thWith over 100 categories, we hope you'll consider us for at least one.

Editor's Note: This article was originally published in the Silicon Valley Business Journal on September 24, 2020 and is re-posted here with permission.  The MOHI Farm @ Granada Theater restaurant in Morgan Hill used a $2,500 city grant to turn its sidewalk dining space into an inviting place to eat. Small businesses and small towns often share resource problems in good economic times. During Covid times, it can be the pits.“If our businesses aren't selling their products, then they're not making money, which means the city's not making money,” said Morgan Hill Mayor Rich Constantine. “So, yeah, we understand that symbiotic relationship.” But Morgan Hill has created a grant program for businesses, cobbled together from city funds and business donations from locally based Shoe Palace, Home Depot and ACE Hardware, that’s part of a larger effort to make doing business outdoors as easy as possible because outdoor business is pretty much the only thing happening while people are masked and meandering.
 KPIX 5 Reporter John Ramos Interviewed Owners J. and Nick GaichAs the pandemic wears on, Morgan Hill is doing al fresco dining in a big way. KPIX 5's John Ramos reported, "Morgan Hill is feeling the same economic pressures any other place, but this community is showing how much can be accomplished when you embrace change, rather than try to resist it." John goes on to point out that the City of Morgan Hill is working to make the downtown area "an attraction of sorts." Local restaurants downtown, including Craft Roots, now extend out into the street thanks to the easing of regulations by Morgan Hill city government and helpful grants to assist businesses with making necessary upgrades to pivot to outdoor services.
 We can't wait to serve you!Oh, how we have missed you! It was a difficult decision to temporarily close Craft Roots back in March. But we felt strongly that we needed to prioritize the health and safety of our team and our local community in Morgan Hill and broader South County. Since then, we’ve been working hard behind the scenes to update our processes and operations to enable us to safely reopen. And it seems the timing is finally right for us to do just that.
 We’re so excited to offer the healthiest cold-pressed juices sourced from California’s Central Valley.The folks at Pressed Juicery use a heat-free, cold-pressed process to extract the nutrients from fresh fruits and vegetables and turn them into amazing juices and nutrient-rich shots. You’ll notice the “just-picked freshness” in their juice selections derived from juicing ingredients almost immediately after harvest for superior taste and the highest amount of nutrients, vitamins, and antioxidants.
Going plant-based is not just good for you, it's good for the health of our planet.
Many climate scientists and economists believe that if we want to address climate change and save the planet, we need to change what we put on our tables, and how we mass-produce food. Check out the documentary, Vegan 2019, sponsored by abillionveg, a “diverse social community of vegans and non-vegans changing the world, one vegan dish and product review at a time.”
