✨ WE’RE COMING BACK THIS FALL…JUST A LITTLE DIFFERENT! ✨

After closing our shared storefront in June, I’ve had some time to reflect, dream, and think about what’s next for Geist Charcuterie.

And I’m so excited to finally share it with you… we’re coming back small scale in October! ❤️
But this time, we’re taking a completely different approach.

Moving forward for the rest of 2026, Geist Charcuterie will no longer have a shared or solo storefront experience, and we will not be offering online charcuterie pre ordering or have our convenient grab-and-go cooler for customers.

Instead, we’re evolving into something that feels more personal, creative, and intentional. ✨

For the remainder of 2026, Geist Charcuterie is becoming a luxury private Chef service for our local Geist area.

Beginning in October, we’ll be offering:
🥗 Private Chef Meal prep servicing limited busy families
🧀 Charcuterie classes & workshops
🥂 Select private charcuterie events
✨ And a few special collaborations along the way

This new direction allows me to focus on creating meaningful luxury experiences around good food, good company, and good memories — while keeping Geist Charcuterie small, personal, and intentional.

And before we officially launch all of this in October…
I just want to say thank you to everyone who has supported Geist Charcuterie through every chapter. Your encouragement, orders, classes, events, messages, and friendships have meant more than you know.

This isn’t the end of Geist Charcuterie — it’s an evolution, of organic growth while enjoying this new chapter of my life-family focused.

This transition allows me to still create small scale and serve my community in a way that is authentic to me and what Geist Charcuterie was built on back in 2022….heart, gourmet foods and top notch customer service & attention to details. Licensed, certified and insured.

I can’t wait to share what’s next as this new chapter begins and evolves.

Here’s to a new another new chapter of
Geist. Charcuterie! 🥂🧀

Summer GC update:

When we closed our shared storefront kitchen and grab-and-go cooler on June 13, I shared that we were taking the summer off to rest and explore the possibility of finding another storefront. I know many of you have been patiently waiting and hoping to hear that we'd be opening our doors again somewhere new.

After a lot of prayer, conversations, and soul-searching, I've made the difficult decision not to pursue another storefront at this time. As much as I loved having a place for you to stop in, the reality is that today's mortgage and commercial property costs just aren't where they need to be for our business to make that leap, sustain and thrive. It is not about our funding, it’s what we are willing to invest at this time. The market is just too high right now and I’m not willing to invest anymore in a new location.

This wasn't an easy decision. In fact, it's one that has brought a lot of mixed emotions. Geist Charcuterie has been so much more than a business to me. It has been a place where I've met incredible people, celebrated your milestones, shared in your holidays, and built friendships that I'll always treasure. For that, I will be forever grateful.

But sometimes God closes one door so he can open another.

I'm excited to share that Geist Charcuterie is transitioning into an exclusive luxury private chef service, allowing me to continue creating beautiful meals and memorable experiences in a way that better fits this season of life.

And here's something that feels like confirmation that we're on the right path—we booked our very first weekly private chef client this week! I couldn't be more excited about what the future holds.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Thank you for every order, every encouraging word, every recommendation, every social media share, and every time you chose to support my dream. Small businesses survive because of people like you, and I will never take that for granted.

This chapter may look different than many of us expected, but I truly believe it's the right one. I hope you'll continue this journey with me as Geist Charcuterie evolves into a new private chef service.

This isn't goodbye to Geist Charcuterie. It's simply the beginning of a different story—and I can't wait to share it with you. ❤️

From the owner:
We’ve been receiving so many calls, texts, and messages, and I just want to say thank you—it truly means a lot.

It's with heavy hearts that we share unexpected news: our shop will close on Saturday, June 20th. We recently learned our current sublease won't be renewed due to new shared storefront ownership. Despite exploring alternatives, we're unable to continue and support a solo storefront. We simply aren’t big enough yet. We're grateful for your support and hope to see you before June 20th. We'll take the next 6 months to explore options. For now this is good bye. We might come back, it’s just uncertain at this point. With sincere gratitude, Amber Ward
