Many of our supporters have asked about Light House Bistro—how are we doing and when we will reopen?
We like to think we never closed! Clearly the environment has changed but we are active seven days a week and remain mission focused. While we have limited public food operations at the moment, Light House Bistro has absorbed the entirety of The Light House food insecure operations—feeding residents, community clients, and managing pantry distribution, which allows us to continue to provide training opportunities despite the restaurant closure.
Since March we have prepared and delivered over 40,000 meals to vulnerable populations, including:
Over 90 meals daily for our homeless neighbors housed by AACo in hotels
125 meals daily for vulnerable individuals through a contract with the AACo Department of Aging and Disabilities
50 meals daily for residents at The Light House
Management of all other Light House food programs, including our drive-thru and walk-up pantry, and other food distribution needs
Participating in "Feed Anne Arundel"
50 casserole dishes weekly to food insecure programs throughout AACo
Supporting Friends of The Light House events with meals and special promotional products
Catering services for Schooner Woodwind and other private events
Selling Light House Bistro signature retail products including granola, pancake kits, and jams—great as holiday gifts and stocking stuffer options so order today!
We continuously evaluate opening scenarios and when the time is right we hope to see you all again soon!
Thank you from all of us at Light House Bistro,
Beth Rocca, Director of Light House Bistro Social Enterprises
