Your neighbourhood cafe and caterer.Our Vision is ‘to set the table for humanity where everyone is loved, welcomed, nourished and celebrated.'Our table is large and we strive to be a home where every ethnicity, age, gender, faith or social status is welcome. Our hope is that in our differences we would mingle, learn, grow and celebrate one another, and through this convergence of lives, benefit the local community of Langley and world at large.Here are some of the things that are matter to us as a business:"family and community; music, arts and creativity; ethical practices and social justice, fairly traded products, health; quality and freshness, local and organic whole ingredients."We endeavour to provide a unique cafe/bistro experience that embodies our vision through excellence of product and service. As Jenn Cornish (Owner) states:"We are a business – a business that is noticeably unique operating on multiple bottom lines – environmental, economic, and social. We desire that our business would be a transformational service for the common good of Langley. We want to see this community flourish. We want to play our part.Good business practices says that we need to pick one demographic of society in order to be successful however that's not what the Water Shed is about. We are intentionally trying to do something different by creating a space where everyone can be welcomed, valued and can feel at home. Therefore, whilst normal business practices need to be respected our vision requires us to innovate and think outside of these norms. Nourishing food and drink can be the catalyst for human flourishing and connection. This is why I do this, because I love people and want to celebrate the goodness of life with amazing food and drink."
