What kind of city do we want to live in when the swell of the pandemic recedes? We believe that Portland would not be Portland without the rich community of independent businesses we know and love. Each week we will let you know how you can support a couple of the businesses we feel are part of the fabric of Portland:
Nong's Khao Man Gai: The house that Nong, chicken, and rice built must remain standing! Nong's is one of our favorite spots to take visitors, and khao man gai is the dish we dream of when we need comfort. Consider contributing to Nong's GoFundMe Campaign, ordering takeout, and sending a note to your Senator pledging your support of a Restaurant Stabilization Fund!
Flower Bomb: Solara Schoeffler has been providing Portlanders with gorgeous flowers for twenty years! You may know her from her mobile floral truck at the corner of SE 28th and Stark. Last year, she settled into a storefront just up the road a few months ago. We love her work, and who doesn't love getting flowers? Get a gift card or send flowers to someone you love today!
