NEW MOON CAFE

This momentum culminated in our being offered the purchase of the New Moon Cafe, after then-owner Dylan Elkhart. The Black Moon Collective spent weeks analyzing the costs and benefits to this option, and decided it was the right thing to do on March 27th, 2013. We began owning and operating the restaurant exactly four months later. Our objective was to create a non-hierarchical working environment that was in itself a sustainable business... As a worker-owned and collectively-managed restaurant, we believe in the right of all people to have control over their lives and livelihoods. We honor our collective and individual autonomy by creating jobs that foster self-development and well-being; that affirm our worth and equality as workers. We strive to make good food accessible to more people and to grow strong relationships with local farmers, producers, and distributors. We seek to utilize our resources and space to support the greater Olympia community... Visit our little collectively..
