🚨Action Item🚨

is a local, family-run business serving up authentic Jamaican cuisine in Newington, NH. They are an integral part of the BIPOC Festival community & an absolute favorite of our organizing staff and attendees each year.

Rohan and Sharna Tomlinson have dedicated themselves to sharing the food of their culture with the community. Through their work, they’ve created more than just a place to eat — they’ve built a space rooted in connection, heritage, and care.

With the demolition of Fox Run Mall, they are being forced to leave their current location and relocate. Like so many small, community-driven businesses, rising costs and sudden changes have made this transition especially challenging. They are actively working on plans for the next chapter of One Love Cuisine and preparing to reopen in a new space.

We’re reaching out to our community for support to help Rohan and Sharna cover the startup and relocation costs needed to rebuild and continue their journey. Our goal is to raise $50,000 to support this transition. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps keep their vision alive and ensures their cultural food and story can continue to be shared.

Please consider donating to help maintain this community staple using the link in our bio.
