It’s Our Birthday!

Sassafras is a year old! No wind, epic snowstorm, rain, or fallen roof could tarnish what a wonderful year we had and we want to party!

Come out and celebrate our birthday with us. There will be cake and coffee and giveaways and lots more.

Thank you to everyone who supported us this year and during the three months we have been closed. ❤️
