Vaccinate and Caffeinate at Fairley’s Pharmacy and Rosebridge Coffee

As we muddle through what feels like a perpetual pandemic, it continues to be important to get vaccinated against COVID-19. This, along with masks and social distancing, are our best weapons (or, tools, for a less aggressive vibe) to fight this virus. If you haven’t gotten your COVID vaccination yet, consider heading to Fairley’s Pharmacy for your jab. They have the Moderna vaccine available for you, and the folks at Rosebridge Coffee, located inside the pharmacy, are offering a free small cup of coffee (beans roasted by Heart Coffee Roasters), cold brew, or milk tea while you wait to get vaccinated.

So get your shot—and a shot of caffeine—all at the same time. Sounds like a pretty good deal to me. 7206 NE Sandy Blvd, Portland

As you may know, Bee’s Cakes is now occupying the space at the northwest corner of NE Fremont and 72nd Avenue. It’s currently operating as a wholesale bakery but there are cafe/retail plans in the works (interior renovations continue). However, Rebecca Powazek (the upbeat force behind Bee’s Cakes) announced that she’s doing a retail bakery pop-up event on Saturday, September 4! So exciting!

Last week I saw the news about changes coming to Roseway’s Heim Bakery but wanted to see how the details settled out before I wrote about it here. Basically, Jennifer Plitzko is transitioning out of Heim (“the winds of life are blowing [her] in a different direction”) and Rebecca “Bee” Powazek will be taking over the space as Bee’s Cakes and Cafe.

As I’ve mentioned before, the Rocky Butte Farmers Market is returning this June, this time atop the actual Rocky Butte by Mannahouse Church. In anticipation of the Market, there’s been lots of strategy and planning, and one thing that has come out of the planning process is a fundraiser to support the Rocky Butte Farmers Market at Arrowood Restaurant on the evening of Monday, May 17.
