From fresh organic coffee to our delicious scones and cookies, you'll know you're in the right place. Community is the reason CG exists and people like you make it a special place.
Community is the reason for what we serve and the quality of our products. Barb City Roasters (in Cortland) and Level Ground Trading Co. are people dedicated to providing the 100% organic coffee, teas, chocolate and spices that we use for drinks and more. Fair and ethically sourced products help us to fight modern day slavery one cup at a time. Our customers care about education and promoting social advocacy around this issue and others like it.
Through CG4 local partnerships we are showcasing local authors, designers, illustrators and performers. This collaboration gives local artist space to create and sell their work in exchange for DeKalb youth mentorship. Teens receive creative support and their work can be used for fundraising anti-trafficking efforts. As a community of concern, modern day slavery is combated by being invested in each others success.
