We're very pleased to share that the second cohort of business owners has graduated from our Inclusive Ventures Program - an initiative that aims to help small and minority-, women-, and Veteran-owned businesses succeed and grow by providing their owners with the resources that early-stage entrepreneurs so often lack: business education and training, access to capital, and mentorship.
The event took place last Wednesday, October 27, and included each owner presenting his or her final business plan followed by surprise remarks from County Executive Steuart Pittman, Maryland Department of Commerce Secretary Kelly M. Schulz, and The City Of Annapolis Mayor Gavin Buckley.

Elizabeth and Dillion just celebrated their wedding reception at the Annapolis Maritime Museum & Park with some amazing food, oyster decor, and their lab Betty! These two tied the knot last October by the beach in New Jersey with just 20 of their closest family and friends due to the pandemic. This year was the party to celebrate with their original guest list and everyone had such a fun time together!

Our mission is to create simple, seasonal, beautiful food. We try to source the best quality ingredients that are locally available and then present them in an artistic way. We use a lot of condiments, like arugula pesto, and micro-greens or edible flowers for an extra touch. We like to grill on site, so that we are not re-heating something already prepped in the kitchen. Something normal like grilled flank steak can be upgraded with some poached garlic with lemon and burst cherry tomatoes. And we are known for pickles!
The thing we like the most about catering special events like weddings is Happy Endings. More than the planning, we like when the day arrives, when we are on site, the physical ex*****on of the event and our joyful clients.
I suppose our ideal client is a client who likes to be creative through the whole process. Itโs fun and sometimes a challenge to do something unusual and out-of-the-box, not just for the menu, but with decor and the whole layout of the event.
Bowl of Cherries offers full service and drop off catering for a wide range of corporate and private events. Bowl of Cherries is a women owned business run by women.
