It's been so amazing to see & hear all the support from so many people in our community since our last newsletter when we described the Community Supported Enterprise (CSE) program we are now relying on to help us survive & thrive in this changing economy.

Contributions have come from all over the country from friends, fans, patrons, local business owners & even vendors! For those of you in a tough financial situation like us, thank the generosity of patrons like Dee & David, who have got you covered:

"We are sending $111 - for ten folks who wish they could but can't. I am among your original and most faithful customers, because of Dandelion's philosophy, commitment, integrity, and quality of food and staff. I am confident that the Universe will answer your call in the best of ways." - Dee Rivers-Yowell & David Yowell

The entire Dandelion staff has been so grateful for the increased business, generous donations (thanks Brendan Wood for your coffee can of loose change - it added up to $45!!!), and community response to the situation.

While we've made it 25% to our goal, we are still relying on the good people of our community to chip in by August 11th. Keep reading for the full update, along with great events happening this week to keep the fun flowing.
