Cup & Kettle Tea Co. in downtown Bloomington has been nearly hidden by scaffolding and construction signs for two years, slashing daily customers from 60 to just 10. Owner Jessica Messmer, a single mom, has lost over $100,000 and even her kids’ college funds just to keep the doors open. Now, she’s turning the struggle into something positive with a limited-edition ‘ScaffoldTEA’ blend fundraiser. Every purchase helps keep this cozy local spot afloat until the construction chaos ends. It’s a real story of resilience—would you support a business fighting to survive in your neighborhood? #Business #Bloomington #SupportLocal
