Wildflyer Temporarily Shutting Down Operations in the Midst of Unrest in Minneapolis
We're writing to share that we're temporarily shutting down our operations until probably early next week. We will not be at any farmer's markets this weekend, and we've suspended our online store. With post offices shuttered and shipping delays occurring, we're having a hard time fulfilling orders and getting the supplies we need. The shut down of public transit means our employees can't get to work safely. Lastly, our headquarters are right in the middle of this all, which has made work difficult in the last few days.
Most importantly, we feel compelled to be present for our community and demand justice for George Floyd and his family. We will be engaging in clean up efforts on Lake Street and checking in with our youth individually to offer support. The same oppressive systems we're protesting this week impact many of them profoundly. We hope to see justice, unity, peace, and hope in the coming days. We are here with you and for you.
We'll be back in a few days. Much love to all of you, stay safe.
