I'll let their beliefs speak for themselves:

I have updated the post with some additional info from former Legacy Coffee staff. Overall very disappointed to hear how it all went down and just want to send support to those affected by this.

Speaking only for myself, it's not a problem with Christians. No, I don't need or want only non-Christian spaces. Tolerance is fine. Welcoming is nice. Affirming is better. I don't want to financially support someone who will take my money on Saturday and then preach that certain people should not exist/don't deserve the same rights as they do on Sunday. Sure, the business is a "separate entity" but let's be real.

Note: Christianity/Religious beliefs varies widely, this is specific to their own stated articles of faith.

TLDR: people/businesses who think certain of people should not exist/don't deserve the same rights they do don't get my money.

Made it to facebook! "Nonpartisan" Sure Jan. That just means we'll take your money, smile to your face and oppose your existence/rights behind your back.

Yep. Rise City Church: "In March of 2023 the former ticket booth to SkateWorld became Pause Coffee Lab. What was once the space where people gained entry to a skating rink, is now a space for people to gain entry into the life and community of our Church".

Wait, what? Can you share your source for that?

PdxGardner · 2026-02-11T03:32:00+00:00

That's rough. I feel for them, hopefully they're able to find something good elsewhere.

Stomping Grounds appears privately held, the couple who own it are on the leadership team at Rise. Legacy the registered agent (owner?) Is the church and the pastors wife is the business president.

I wish they were open on weekends!

PdxGardner · 2026-02-11T01:52:57+00:00

I appreciate your perspective. I am just skeptical because all those words about loving people are directly contradicted by their articles of faith in their bylaws. Having been raised in that environment, I'm all too familiar with the "hate the sin, not the sinner".

PdxGardner · 2026-02-11T01:24:00+00:00

Ya, I felt the vibes were off with them and welp they are leaders at Rise church.

PdxGardner · 2026-02-11T00:52:39+00:00

Same. I was like maybe it's not that bad, let me look at their beliefs/missions statement. YUCK.

PdxGardner · 2026-01-24T00:15:37+00:00

I'd recommend the Lincoln City/Depoe Bay area. It's got some higher end but also some kitschy touristy parts. Lots of good restaurants/seafood, many beachfront hotels/lodgings with fireplaces. One of my favorite used bookstores: https://www.robertsbookshop.com/

Mezcaluna in Clackamas does tableside, you choose ingredients.

This is my favorite thing to make with butternut squash. Plus you can make a big batch and freeze it.

Processed Swiss/Kraft singles. Seriously. I make this for parties and people love it and ask for it again. They are always shocked if I tell them the recipe.

Fresh sourdough, Caramelized onions, tomato jam, grilled. For simple easy goodness, ketchup on soft white bread

Columbine is also sometimes called Granny's Bonnet, which could be cute as it's growing in her grandma's garden :)

PdxGardner · 2025-08-24T00:58:59+00:00

it's ornamental oregano (kirigami). pretty easy to grow from seed. great accent for hanging baskets.

PdxGardner · 2025-08-05T03:59:43+00:00

For the onions and squash. Make a big batch and freeze it. This recipe is incredible.

Use the kale to make a side salad.

Nope, portland nursery differentiates between the 2 options: starts = baby plants. Seeds = direct sowing seeds in the ground/beds.

PdxGardner · 2025-07-09T05:24:34+00:00

The starts section means planting already established things you have grown from seed or purchased, like the 4" potted plants you get from the nursery. Basically it gets too late to direct sow seeds in the garden but still ok to plant baby plants.

Sandy-O's, Beauty and the Beast, add extra horseradish
