The Community Edition<p><strong>SERVING GOOD FOOD AND GOOD KARMA</strong></p><p>Tiny Home Takeout, located at 56 Duke St. in Kitchener, has been serving the community since they opened four years ago. </p><p>“Father Toby, the head pastor [at St. Mary’s] he was thinking about ways in which we could support the community, especially during the pandemic,” Jie-Soo Park, program assistant at Tiny Home Takeout, said. </p><p>The restaurant works on a pay-what-you-can model to feed as many people as possible. </p><p>“We want everyone to be welcome, whether it’s the mayor or somebody who’s sleeping on the street, to feel like they can come and grab food,” Park said. </p><p>Originally the restaurant served pizzas, but a few years ago the menu switched to serving four different calzone varieties as well as a rotating flavour of the month. The stall also offers bites, smaller snacks that change every day. </p><p>“We started off by serving between 10 and 100 people a day, and now we’re up to 300 sometimes 400 people” said Fr. Toby Collins one of the founders of Tiny Home Takeout. </p><p>“[W]e want to eliminate the stigma behind accessing a great meal, and so even though we are really accessible to those who may not be able to afford take out or a restaurant quality meal, that doesn’t mean that that’s the only demographic we serve,” Park said. </p><p>Many of the ingredients used by Tiny Home Takeout are grown in their own garden located at Resurrection College. </p><p>“We also seek to build community through food, and we find that calmer environment and a respectful environment where people have just a delicious meal that they really appreciate day in and day out,” Collins said. </p><p>On Sept. 14, Tiny Home Takeout will be running their Hunger No More event at St. Mary Our Lady of the Seven Sorrows Roman Catholic Church at 56 Duke Street, Kitchener. </p><p>“We’re going to have lots of food vendors come in and offer small free samples of whatever they serve. And there will also be a Kid Zone, live entertainment and there is a massive silent auction that is always really interesting and a great way to contribute to the community,” Park said. </p><p>For those who are looking to get involved with Tiny Home Takeout, the restaurant takes donations on their site. They are also looking for volunteers in both their restaurant location and garden. </p><p>“It really is changing this part of the downtown and when everybody pitches in and works together trying to deal with the issue of food insecurity in a new and creative way, it truly changes lives for the better,” Collins said. </p><p>“We want everyone from the community to be in line, and we always make enough food so that regardless of who you are, you can come by and you can grab dinner with your family,” he said. </p><p>More information can be found on their website as well as X, Instagram and Facebook at @TinyHomeTakeout. </p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/alex-kinsella/" target="_blank">#AlexKinsella</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/charity/" target="_blank">#charity</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/community-2/" target="_blank">#community</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/father-toby/" target="_blank">#fatherToby</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/kitchener/" target="_blank">#kitchener</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/local-business/" target="_blank">#localBusiness</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/pay-what-you-can/" target="_blank">#payWhatYouCan</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/rachael-macintosh/" target="_blank">#RachaelMacIntosh</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/seven-sorrows-roman-catholic-church/" target="_blank">#sevenSorrowsRomanCatholicChurch</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/st-marys/" target="_blank">#stMaryS</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/tiny-home-takeout/" target="_blank">#TinyHomeTakeout</a></p>
The Community Edition<p><strong>AYR’S MUSIC AND BOOKS COLLECTS MORE THAN MEDIA</strong></p><p>Situated at 80 Stanley St. in Ayr, Ontario, Music & Books is both the first ever record store and first ever bookstore to open in Ayr. </p><p>Beyond just selling vinyls and paperbacks, Music & Books host a variety of events and clubs. There are yoga nights, writer’s guilds, listening groups, book clubs and art classes. They also host readings for local writers and sell the work of local artists. </p><p>Owners Jacqui Wright, Courtney Hope, and Julia Mills want Music & Books to be a community center as well as a shop. They consider many of their customers friends. </p><p>“We collect humans,” Hope said. </p><p>Music & Books was conceived for the community: Hope wanted a record store to support her husband’s vinyl hobby and Wright wanted a space for her child that did not involve sports. Within a matter of days, the friends went from fantasizing about the store to leasing a space. While passionate, Wright and Hope were in over their heads. </p><p>“We had no experience, no business plan. We had no money, no idea how to order vinyl, we had no idea how to get in touch with publishers. And then we were like ‘sure we’ll get you first and last month’s rent by Tuesday!,’” Wright said. </p><p>Wright and Hope realized that in order for Music & Books to be sustainable, a more organized presence was needed. Mills, who began as the company’s website designer was quickly signed on as a third co-owner. </p><p>“We were like ‘Woooh! Dreams! Let’s do it all!’ And she said, ‘that’s great, but let’s do it properly. There are steps,’” Hope said. </p><p>Music and Books quickly became a keystone in Ayr’s artistic community, much thanks to the physical nature of their business. Ayr’s community theater runs its box office through the store and the three owners relish introducing local kids to vinyl records. Music & Books has quickly become a keystone in Ayr’s artistic community, much thanks to the physical nature of their business. </p><p>“People just love being in the space…they walk in and they’ll tell us everything about their past, their present, something cool. So, we have a book related to them, you know, or pick them up a vinyl,” Wright said. “Then the stories just flow from there. It’s been the most beautiful, mind-blowing experience I’ve been part of.” </p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/80-stanely-street/" target="_blank">#80StanelyStreet</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/ayr/" target="_blank">#Ayr</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/books/" target="_blank">#Books</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/bookstore/" target="_blank">#bookstore</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/courtney-hope/" target="_blank">#courtneyHope</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/jacky-wright/" target="_blank">#jackyWright</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/julia-mills/" target="_blank">#juliaMills</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/local-business/" target="_blank">#localBusiness</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/local-music/" target="_blank">#localMusic</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/local-store/" target="_blank">#LocalStore</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/media/" target="_blank">#Media</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/music-books/" target="_blank">#MusicBooks</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.communityedition.ca/tag/vinyl/" target="_blank">#Vinyl</a></p>
