About Parish Coffee
Historically, a 'Parish' is a group of people that were under the care of a specific priest. The city of Calgary is the 'Parish' we seek to pour into and build relationships through coffee and connection!
As Parish is mobile, you can find us anywhere from a summer market, to a corporate event, to a wedding celebration, to the streets and parks of Calgary.
Follow us on Instagram @parish.coffee to track where we are popping up! Or book us today through connect@parish.coffee.

Mission
Parish Coffee is a social enterprise small business startup in Calgary, AB. We’ve got a big heart for making an impact in our city through community-centred business and good coffee! Our goal is to provide training and employment opportunities for folks who need a hand in obtaining employment, like new immigrants and the like, right here in our city!

Founder
Hey there! My name is Somer! Here are a few basics about me: I’m a born-and-raised Calgarian and an Ambrose University grad with a major in Behavioural Science and a minor in Community Development – specifically the Domestic Poverty track, which really sparked my interest! I’m super passionate about conscious consumerism and business practices.
I find so much joy in connecting people and creating spaces where everyone can just show up, be themselves, and build new relationships! Oh, and I love coffee!
Looking forward to getting to know you a bit more and hearing your story over a cappuccino!
