We are thrilled to give you an inside look at our local businesses by introducing you to the amazing people who run them each day welcoming customers and ensuring we remain deeply connected to the neighborhood. This week we are focusing on Community Grounds, our neighborhood coffee shop, and cafe FCS opened to create a local third space - a safe, welcoming environment for neighbors to connect, belong, curate neighborhood identity, and care for each other.
Listen in on two of our leaders at Community Grounds: Carlissa Woodruff who is the Kitchen Lead and Brittley Pearson our Barista Lead. Not only are they employees and leaders, but they are also residents of Historic South Atlanta.
