Thanks to everyone for supporting Common Roots and helping grow our business. We know you love to work and meet here and we pride ourselves on being a community meeting place. As you may have noticed, as our dinner and brunch business continue to build we are regularly full or near full...

Common Roots Cafe Yesterday we picked most of what was left in the garden -- 20 pounds of beets, 6 pounds of carrots, 8 pounds of collard greens, 5 pounds of arugula, 1 pound of parsley, 3 pounds of broccoli, 1/2 pound of mint, and the 6 pounds of chard in the photo below. Not bad for a December harvest in Minnesota!
