Meet Tim. Tim is currently interning at Marge’s Bakery & Bites, where he’s getting hands-on experience in the kitchen, learning new recipes, preparing ingredients, measuring everything properly, and becoming more confident every day.

And if you ask him what you need to try when you stop in, his answer is easy: the bacon maple syrup cupcake. According to Tim, it’s “to die for.”

But what makes Marge’s special goes far beyond what comes out of the oven.

It’s about creating a place where people can learn new skills, contribute to a team, build relationships, and take pride in what they accomplish.

We’re proud to have Tim as part of the Marge’s family and he’ll be ready to welcome you when you stop in.

Come say hello and try one of his recommendations for yourself. 💙

What if employment wasn't just about getting a job?

What if it was about discovering what you're good at?

Building confidence.

Learning responsibility.

Contributing to something bigger than yourself.

Being part of a team.

Having a paycheck.

And knowing:

“I did this.”

That's part of the vision behind Marge's Bakery and Bites.

Marge's is more than a bakery.

It is becoming an opportunity to put inclusive employment into action.

Through this endeavor, we're creating opportunities for individuals to develop skills in areas such as:

~ Food preparation
~ Money handling
~ Inventory
~ Customer service
~ Marketing
~ Teamwork
~ Workplace responsibility

This is what Mission into Action looks like.

Not simply talking about inclusion.

Creating places where inclusion can happen.

There’s a reason we chose the name Marge’s.

Both of our grandmothers were named Margaret, and they were the kind of women who kept everyone together. They fed their families, brought people around the table, and instilled values that have stayed with us to this day.

When we opened Marge’s Bakery & Bites, we wanted to bring those same values into our community, creating a place where people feel welcomed, connected, and cared for.

Putting their name on our sign means carrying a little piece of them with us every single day. Come visit us in Spencerport, NY!

Monday–Friday: 8:30 AM–3 PM
Saturday: 8:30 AM–12 PM

And while you’re here, you have to try the blueberry coffee cake. 🫐

What people see:

A class.
A storefront.
A product.
An event.
A social media post.

What they don't always see:

The planning.

The curriculum development.

The phone calls.

The emails.

The partnership conversations.

The problem-solving.

The late nights.

The constant question:

“How can we make this better?”

Building a community organization doesn't happen overnight.

It happens one relationship, one program, one participant and one opportunity at a time.

And that's exactly what we've been doing.

This is what it’s all about. For Anna, having a job at Marge’s Bakery & Bites means so much more than simply going to work.

It means having a purpose. Building independence. Connecting with people. Contributing to her community. And having a place where her strengths are recognized and valued.

From remembering customers and making them smile to earning her own money, paying her own bills, and having her own apartment, seeing the difference meaningful employment has made in Anna’s life is exactly why opportunities like this matter.

We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to contribute, grow, belong, and be celebrated for what they bring to the table.

If you stop into Marge’s, make sure you try the Blueberry coffee cake, they are to die for! ❤️

At Blue Heron Collective, you can find Lake Ontario postcards.

All jokes aside, we get a lot of questions about what goes on behind our doors.

We are an inclusive community agency we run a variety of classes for adults, children and families. All classes are engaging, hands on and give individuals the opportunity to learn new skills, socialize and be part of a community.

Deep down, our mission is to broaden opportunities for inclusive employment. Even if you don't want to take a class, come on in because we have a variety of unique items in our developing boutique style shop.

Every purchase helps support our mission of inclusion, empowerment, opportunity and community.

One of the most important lessons from our first year:

Community work is better when we do it together.

Over the past year, Blue Heron Collective has connected with organizations, businesses, educators, community groups and other like-minded people who believe that opportunity should be accessible to everyone.

Our partnerships have helped us create experiences that go beyond the walls of our storefront.

Because inclusion shouldn't exist in isolation.

It should exist:

in classrooms.
in workplaces.
in community spaces.
in businesses.
at events.
and around the table.

We are incredibly grateful to the partners who have opened doors, shared ideas, collaborated with us and believed in what we're building.

And we're looking forward to meeting even more people who want to move from good intentions to meaningful action.
