Local coffee company reopening at Broad Steet Market

HARRISBURG, Pa. (WHTM) — The Broad Street Market Alliance announced earlier today that a local coffee company will soon be making its return to the Market. According to the Broad Street Market Alliance, the Harrisburg-based Elementary Coffee Co. will be holding its grand reopening inside the Market's Stone Building later this week on Saturday, June 7.

Additionally, the coffee company will give 10% of its Saturday sales of coffee and tea back to the Broad Street Market Alliance to support its journey. 'Elementary Coffee Co. is beyond excited to be part of the historic Broad Street Market once again! We have always considered the Market, our fellow vendors, and our lively patrons to be our home. We are so happy to bring our business 'home' once again with a fresh twist on our original stand.

Elementary Coffee Co. originally opened inside the Broad Street Market back in 2014, and has since grown into its own brick-and-mortar shop on 256 North Street.

'We are thrilled to have long-time favorite, Elementary Coffee Co., back at the Broad Street Market,' Eric Hagarty, Chair of the Market, said. 'With coffee once again available in the Stone Building, the community will have even more great options to choose from when visiting the Broad Street Market.'

A top S.F. brewery is ready to open on the waterfront

San Francisco's perennially popular brewery Standard Deviant, among the Chronicle's list of the best in the Bay Area, is opening its newest taproom and production facility on Friday. Standard Deviant will pour more than 20 of its beers from a 30-foot-long bar inside a refurbished shipbuilding facility in Building 12 at Pier 70 in Dogpatch, part of a major redevelopment of the site. Operating partner Paul Duatschek said he and fellow operators Mark DeVito and Peter Vitt are excited to offer their range of beers, which the team cheekily boasts are the 'coldest tasting beer in San Francisco.' Taps at Pier 70 are ready to go with classic European styles like Belgian blondes, Kolsches and a crisp Hefeweissen. Other beers include barrel-aged offerings, West Coast-style IPAs and horchata-flavored nitro cream ales, with an extra rich body. Just like Standard Deviant's first outpost in the Mission District, beers will be produced in-house and in plain view for anyone curious about the process. 'We always wanted customers to have open access and look at our operations so they understand how we're making beer in San Francisco,' Duatschek said. The production facility is fitted with a 20-barrel system that can produce between 4,000 and 6,000 barrels of beer per year, roughly double or triple of the original location's output. With the craft beer industry stagnating, the goal is to grow at a sustainable pace and continue to self distribute in the city and slowly into more corners of the Bay Area. The Standard Deviant team recently wrapped up the last bits of work and training inside the new facility. The space still bears an industrial feel with exposed steel girders, but is softened by natural light from the tall windows, wooden elements and bright artwork on walls. The location offers a space for private events as well. The brewery arrives as Pier 70 positions itself as a hotspot for local artisans and creatives manufacturing ceramics, jewelry and custom sneakers inside the football field-sized facility. Buzzy Asian-American bakery Breadbelly is also in the works to open this summer, adding another food business to the project. Real estate company Brookfield aims to make Building 12 the centerpiece of its 28-acre mixed-use development on San Francisco's central waterfront. 'Brookfield really wanted brands that represented San Francisco well,' Duatschek said. 'We want to be a representation of crafting things well in San Francisco. We're doubling down on that.' 70 Pier, San Francisco.

Council of Yukon First Nations, AFN to combine leadership roles into 1

Yukon First Nations have decided to unify a couple of regional leadership roles into one — meaning the next grand chief of the Council of Yukon First Nations (CYFN) will have some new responsibilities. Starting in October, the Assembly of First Nations (AFN) will no longer have a Yukon regional chief who's independent of CYFN. That person's duties and responsibilities will be taken up by the next CYFN grand chief. The two organizations began discussing the idea since last year and both passed resolutions last month to make it happen. The goal, according to a joint news release on Wednesday, is to "streamline governance, reduce duplication and strengthen national and political advocacy grounded in the shared priorities of all 14 Yukon First Nations." Currently, Yukon is represented at the AFN — an Ottawa-based national advocacy group — by Yukon Regional Chief Kluane Adamek, who has served in that role since 2018. CYFN is a non-profit political organization based in the territory that represents and advocates for Yukon First Nations, with the grand chief serving as the main political spokesperson. Peter Johnston has held that role since 2016 and has said he won't be running for another term. Under the new model, the CYFN grand chief will now represent Yukon First Nations at AFN executive meetings. However, that person "will not lead an AFN portfolio or sit on the AFN corporate board without a direct mandate from Yukon First Nations," reads Wednesday's news release. "This approach reflects a made-in-Yukon solution — directed by all 14 Chiefs — that aligns with regional governance realities while maintaining a strategic national presence." The next grand chief of CYFN will be elected this month. They would take on the new AFN-related responsibilities as of Oct. 1. In a written statement, Johnston called the change "a significant step forward in unifying our effort and advancing the interests of all Yukon First Nations." Adamek also touted the decision as a way to ensure Yukon First Nations have a stronger voice through "co-ordinated advocacy." "This is about amplifying the collective voices of all Yukon First Nations in a way that reflects who we are: united, visionary and rooted in our values," she said.
