Enchanting New Coffee Shop Coming To Lake Hiawatha

PARSIPPANY, NJ — A new coffee shop is coming to Lake Hiawatha this Spring, thanks in part to a grant from the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (NJEDA).

The new coffee shop, Tierra Encanto, received a grant of $11,250 through the Small Business Lease Grant program under the NJEDA.

The NJEDA began the Small Business Lease Grant program in the wake of the COVID pandemic, as part of a "Main Street suite of products" to provide funding to small businesses for lease payments.

"The Main Street Recovery Finance Program is a fund to support New Jersey micro-business owners and partnering entities that can serve New Jersey micro-businesses," NJEDA writes its in public statement. "To receive support from the Main Street Recovery Finance Program, businesses must be in good standing with the NJ Department of Labor, NJ Department of Treasury, and the NJ Department of Environmental Protection."

Tierra Encanto invites coffee enthusiasts to come in and experience "Colombian coffee from the majestic mountains of the Sierra Nevada of Santa Marta," as the shop highlights on social media.

Tierra Encanto will open its doors this spring at 35 N Beverwyck Rd, Lake Hiawatha.
