Help Keep Dreamboat Afloat

Donation protected


Hi Friends,

We write to you with fatigued hands and complete reflection with announcing that Dreamboat will be taking a much needed break and will be closed for the season. 

Due to a series of unfortunate events, that has left my partner in Dreamboat/life with 2nd degree burns, our days have changed drastically. During this pandemic to have any success in a food business is an incredible triumph, we've tried to make it work with our beloved caterings and pop-ups but have reached a burn-out.

It's a sadness that came all at once like a wave engulfing beyond it's break. 

Our independence has humbled to a call for help, from the trusted community we've been serving week after week. 

Maintaining care for 2nd/3rd degree burns is a 24 hour shift until wounds are closed, stretched, and healed collectively with the mind body and spirit.   It's an excruciating experience to witness someone you love go through, it's an incredibly dark ordeal for both patient and caregiver. 

So we've reached an impasse, and we need help to get through it. 

Medical expenses are a constant reminder of how screwed anyone's financial future is let alone the holistic medicine needed to alongside it because after all we are jungle kids that trust the land as much as we do the Doctor.

So alongside gaining assistance with that we'll be continuing the growth of Dreamboat's business plan.  If we are healed and rested we can come back even stronger with offerings beyond what we've put out before!


What our medical expenses look like:

- Wound Care (i.e gauze LOTS OF IT, tape, wrappings, dressings, burn cream LOTS OF IT, ect)
- Medicine/Vitamins/Minerals
- Various Therapies (including holistic therapies from our medicine people)
- Herbal Supplements/Tinctures  
* Passion Flower
* Valerian
* Skullcap
* Calendula
* St John's Wort
* Kava Kava 
* Danodan Hemp Flower CBD 1800 mg
* Turmeric



What our business expenses look like:
- Commercial Kitchen fees
-  Labeling and packaging supplies
- Business enrollments/ legalities
- Printed matter 


Our goal first and foremost is to rest so we can work towards healing. Dreamboat will check in via social media every so often with updates and humble offerings, but for the most part, it's all hands on deck until full recovery. 


Listen y'all, we need every aunty, bruja, medicine person, doula, and friend right now. We're  graciously taking all the comfort and encouragement we can get and know a little goes a very long way.

Dreamboat was built with no money and no resources, so any humble offer is abundant and  will add to our stability and recovery. 


May peace always find you and please know what eagerness awaits to serve you again!

To every person who has ordered from us, supported us near and far, attended our dinners, or just offered words of love and encouragement, we run to you with gratitude.

Red beans and ricely yours,
Dreamboat cafe
