🎉 A Milestone Worth Celebrating!

The City of South Fulton recently celebrated the grand reopening of the newly renovated Grown Folks Café—marking 30 years of entrepreneurship, resilience, and continued investment along the Old National corridor.

A wonderful crowd of community members, business leaders, and City officials — gathered to recognize owner Harriet Bryant and this exciting new chapter for a longtime South Fulton business.

During the celebration, Mayor Pro Tem Keosha B. Bell, presented Ms. Bryant with a proclamation from the City of South Fulton honoring her hard work, entrepreneurial leadership, and impact on the community over the past three decades.

The renovation of Grown Folks Café represents more than a refreshed space. It demonstrates how reinvestment in an established business can:

✨ Strengthen commercial corridors
✨ Support local jobs and economic activity
✨ Encourage additional private investment
✨ Preserve businesses that contribute to the identity of our community

Congratulations to Harriet Bryant and the entire Grown Folks team! Your longevity and continued commitment are powerful examples of what it means to be open for business and built for growth in South Fulton.
