Rocky Mountain Flatbread will close the doors of its Kitsilano restaurant on May 29 after serving the Kitsilano community for 16 wonderful years.
Over 16 years, they have made and served over a million pizzas from ingredients sourced from over 50 local farmers, donated thousands of meals to worthy causes, launched a brilliant frozen pizza brand and taught over 75,000 kids how to make their favourite pizza. They have also worked with 30 000 students in VSB schools to create their own productive school gardens where they work with our urban farmers and nutritionists to grow their own food through EarthBites.
While they are closing the Kitsilano location, they are keeping the cherished Main St location in Vancouver, their franchised restaurants in Alberta, and those amazing Rocky Mountain Flatbread frozen pizzas on the grocery shelves in Western Canada.
They are also going to further pursue opportunities and interests in community food security such as Suzanne’s EarthBites school garden program and Chef Oliver’s hydroponic farming.
As part of the closing of the Kits location, they are running a fundraiser for their non-profit EarthBites school garden program as there are about 1,000 frozen pizzas available for pick up. The suggested donation is $5 per pizza.
