Sundays we are normally closed because it is our big prep day for the week. However, we have decided that if we are able to get a jump start on the week then we will open that Sunday. This will be on a weekly basis and will be announced the Friday prior. HOWEVER…. 🥁
We are excited to announce that we will be open this Sunday, June 7th, for DRINKS, SCONES, and COOKIES! Our cooler will have our dips available as well. Although we wish we could offer a full menu, it’s not feasible as the kitchen will be utilized for our weekly prep. However, it’s still a great space to grab a treat and connect with family, friends, or to chill by yourself! We’ll be open THIS Sunday from 10 AM-2 PM.

🩷We’d love if you could get the word out and share this post so that others know we will be open since it’s not our norm to be open Sundays😊

Summer Menu 2026 ☀️. We want to feed you with better ingredients. What we believe is best for our family is what we will use in our cafe!
⭐️ We use all organic flour, organic cane sugar, grass fed butter, organic teas, organic coffee beans, organic matcha, organic milks, and our house made cashew milk is seed oil free! In fact, about 95% of our menu is seed oil free. Some of the dried fruit we purchase contains sunflower oil and so does the smoked eggplant we use in our baba Ganoush. And while the majority of food establishments use seed oils, we shy away from it because we want to give you the best we are able to. Cheers 🥂

🍲 Soup will be a sporadic item in the summer as the hot summer days increase, but we will have it regularly again in the Fall 😊

Let’s have some fun! 🤩 We want to get to know our followers a bit! (If you’re not a follower- we’d love to have you become one 😊) Here we go…

If you had a day all to yourself, and if there was no financial restraint, what would your perfect day look like?

I can go first, mine would look a bit like this: A latte and a scone from The Willow Where Our Roots Began to start the day, followed by a spa, lunch out, getting a pedicure, and then going to a yarn shop with this girl. We’d round off the day with some knitting and a snack. 🧶

Tell all of us what your day would look like! And then vote for your top choice of someone else’s response by commenting the word “vote”.

Over the weekend, I’ll draw three winners who will receive a gift certificate to The Willow 👏🏻 Winners must be able to come into The Willow. No shipping.

Sabbath (Saturday) mornings are slow mornings in our home. Clinton brought me a latte from the shop so that I can enjoy it slowly before we headed off to church and wrote me this cute note! Certainly made my day ❤️
