Let us answer some FAQ’s!
-What is your opening date?
We purchased our building over 4 years ago and always had plans to open a coffeehouse/storefront. Our historical building needs a little TLC. We are starting with repairs and upgrades. A courtyard revamp starts with digging up ancient tree roots/busted drain pipes and revamping that subsurface drainage. Our building roof has a couple leaks. Remedy for patch work, electrical, etc. After we make her like new again, then comes the pretty aesthetics. We are revamping our entire facility, and it’s going to be a VIBE! We can’t wait for you to see it, but also, we will not open a day before it’s completely finished. We want the first impression of the product and the space to be something you love from day one. Once we dig into this construction, we will have a better idea of opening date. Short answer, I hope to be serving nice warm beverages for Ponchatoula’s Christmas lighting.
-Is Stinky Mud Photography closing or moving?
Absolutely not and no. My services have become majority real estate photography. The space will be a shared space. I will have a live action “hut” inside this place that will be a work of art in itself. A place for me to work from, edit, and create art! Rouxt Coffeehouse is created to enhance the art store. The shared space will also include the work of other Louisiana creators. You’ll have to just wait and see what that looks like. I hope this venture encourages me to get back out in the swamps more to hang more wall art of our beautiful swamp life.
-Can we sell our food from your coffeehouse?
Vendors, we hear you! We are overwhelmed with the love. Many people want to be a part of this venture and that is exactly what we want. A community shared space. Please allow us some time to get into the build and we will be interviewing for a business to supply us with some pastries and the likes. There is a plan in place! ☺️
Ponchatoula, we love you and we hear you! Thank you so much for this warm welcome. The support we have received already is promising.
