Midtown Greenway Cleanup Day

We love the Midtown Greenway! A
beautiful bike and walk way to be sure, the Greenway is so much more,
with a vision that encompasses public art, transportation, housing
revitalization. economic development and community building too. Proud
adopters of the section between 31st & 36th Ave since 2006,
we’re doing our part by sponsoring our bi-yearly clean up. This year
we’re teaming up with Soul Revolution, a like-minded, like-hearted
business that helps people “Bravely Be” to live authentic lives. We’ll
meet at the cafe between 8:30 & 9 am for complimentary coffee
or meet us on the Greenway when you can. We’ll provide bags and gloves
and all volunteers are invited back to the Birchwood after to enjoy $5
off their lunch! RSVP to info@birchwoodcafe.com.

Planning to serve MOM breakfast in bed? Come at 5pm instead for Burgers

local craft beer for $30.
