Help us move Happy Gut Sanctuary to High Falls

Happy Gut Sanctuary is an AAPI Woman owned fermented tea bar that first opened in Rochester in 2018. Catt Hsu and Rob Heffner have provided the area with delicious international award-winning Kombucha ever since. Happy Gut has truly become a Sanctuary to so many Rochestarians who come for the bright & green space, refreshing NA drinks, the friendly staff, and so much more.

The Sanctuary started from Catt and Rob's personal savings, and after surviving a global pandemic, as well as all of the challenges of running a small business, they are relocating to the High Falls area to expand their operation. Happy Gut will be bringing all of their beloved products as well as a full kitchen, run with another local business, to 229 Mill Street, formerly Fina's.

This is where you come in. The space needs quite a bit of love: new floor, paint, appliances, signage, etc. Catt, Rob, and their employees have put all of their time and energy into this business, but for this move to be possible, we are relying on financial support from the community.

Your donation, however large or small, will help to ensure that Happy Gut stays in Rochester for years to come, continuing to provide our community with a warm, inclusive, delicious, and peaceful Sanctuary. Above all, Happy Gut Sanctuary believes in Integrity, Quality, and Community. It has been our greatest joy to provide our community with all that we have to offer, and we are so grateful for your financial support in this new chapter.
