Introducing the Triple Bottom Womxn's Collective
Dear Readers,
It’s been a while! We’re now almost 6 months into being open, and — while we’re still making improvements every single day — we feel like we’ve caught our breath a bit and can begin to return to some of the big ideas that inspired Triple Bottom from the beginning.
Today, the first day of Women’s History Month, I am very excited to introduce the Triple Bottom Womxn’s Collective — a series of salons and pop-ups featuring amazing womxn-owned and led businesses throughout Philly.
Beer to me is about community and bringing people together across experiences to share joy. At Triple Bottom, we try to live this every day by treating each other and our customers with respect and kindness, and actively extending welcome to all our guests.
We also look for opportunities to lift up the great work of others — their art, activism, businesses, and more — through our own efforts here at the brewery. You’ve seen this in how we built our menu with other small, local food artisans, and in how we selected the photos on our walls from talented local photographers via an Instagram competition. You’ve seen this in one-off events, like our Fair Chance Holiday Market, or fundraisers for our neighborhood school. You’ve seen it in our ongoing partnerships with community organizations, through attending their meetings and introducing our customers to their work through our voting coasters. And finally, through our deep relationships with our Fair Chance employment partners, and the way we’re devoted to building a team of all stars with a huge variety of experiences.
As a woman-owned business ourselves, we’re so grateful for the support we’ve gotten from other women in our community and are psyched to pay it forward by shining light on the work of women and women-identifying folks working hard to make a positive impact in our city.
This month, March, is Women’s History Month and we’re rolling out the Collective in a big way, with at least three events a week (in addition to our regular events — hello St. Patrick’s Day!). These events include pop-ups with local food crafters, artists, and social justice organizations. The Collective will live beyond March, and we welcome all your ideas for ways to grow it. Take a look at the calendar below or check out our Facebook Events page to see all the amazing things happening here this month, and please help spread the word!
It’s going to be a great spring here. We’ll see you in the taproom!
-Tess
