Great news. We learned this week that Chestnut Charter Elementary was awarded the state grant that they applied for earlier this year. Not only is Uncle Sam opening his pocket for a school but also a school with a good cause in mind. The grant focuses on teaching kids about where their food…

On the Lookout

By Jonathan | Published: January 25, 2012

To all those who have said ” Where are you located?”, I want to give you an answer. Sarah and I have begun our search into finding a location that you can find us anyway of the week. The opening of a restaurant is in a word, daunting. Excitement, caution, stress and daydreaming are my…

GPFM

The Grant Park Farmer’s Market was crazy yesterday. We sold more pizzas at the market than we have ever sold before at a farmer’s market. I guess delicious ingredients, awesome weather and a hot ‘za are a good combination. I am glad Sarah and I thought so 18 months ago…

Recap

By Jonathan | Published: September 5, 2011

Wow. What a month. August may have been on of the busiest months of my life. Running S & J's Woodfired Pizza on a daily basis and selling pizza to the people 5-6 times per week is awesome but tiring. There is much to do and also much to catch up on.
