🎉 Big thank you to Greater Nexus HQ for selecting The Nourish Spot as a recipient of the Southeast Queens Go Green Restaurant Grant Program earlier this year! 🍋💚

Thie grant is helping us cover the cost of our branded compostable cups — the ones we’re proudly using all season long at the USTA US Open in The Backyard 🍴 X17! 🎾

Every smoothie and every refreshing lemon 🍋 and lime ade we serve to tennis enthusiasts comes in a cup that’s better for the planet, made possible by partners like Greater Nexus HQ who invest in Southeast Queens small businesses and sustainability together.

We’re a proud Queens-grown, family-owned business — born and built right here in Jamaica, Queens — and it means everything to have that support behind us as we represent our community on one of the biggest stages in sports. 🏆

And what better way to close out Black Business Month than celebrating a Black, family-owned Queens business getting to serve nutritious, delicious drinks the green way — thanks to Greater Nexus HQ. 🌱✊🏾

Come, let us nourishU

Thank you for the highlight. Let us Nourish U!

After a successful corporate career, Dawn Kelly turned an expected setback into an opportunity, launching The Nourish Spot in Queens with her daughter. 🙏🏾🖤 More than a juice bar, it’s a community-driven health hub, offering fresh smoothies, salads, and wraps while creating jobs and mentorship opportunities for local youth.

In a neighborhood that needed it most, Dawn and her daughter built something bigger than a business — they built a space where their community could come to feel healthy, valued, and seen.
