SPOTLIGHT Business

George’s Feed & Pet Supply changes hands, remains loyal to customers SUSAN HILAND

SHILAND@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

G

eorge’s Feed & Pet Supply has been around for more than 30 years, but recently its namesake, George Burton, retired, handing over the reins to a longtime employee, Filiberto Elias.

Burton drew in loyal customers from around Solano County and that has not changed; even with a pandemic, the feed store is busy.

“It actually has been really busy,” Elias said. “People are home with their animals and they found that they needed things.”

Elias worked on and off at the store for 27 years. He tried for the past few years to buy the business from Burton, but for one reason or another things just never came together until January 2021.

Elias is joined by his wife, Rosalta, along with his two children, Kassandra and Filiberto III, and one niece, Guadalupe Benavidez, in running the store.

Jaclyn Gomez, who is another longtime employee, continues to help run the store.

“Nobody wanted to see the store go,” Gomez said of the possible closing if the sale hadn’t gone through.

Gomez noted a couple of big changes have happened to the store.

For one, they rearranged the entire space to be more accessible. The second thing may not seem big, but they are now taking credit cards.

“Before, with George, it was cash only,” she said. “It really changed the

Those at the shop have seen some difficulty in getting certain stock items in. It’s taken three weeks for some things, but customers are being very understanding.

They have started doing more deliveries for customers, and that helps.

“We are watching the prices go up, too,” Gomez said. “But most things it is not affecting that much.”

Elias has a few ideas about expanding the physical space but the property is limiting in how far he can go.

He doesn’t want to move to a new place because 1530 Humphrey Drive in Suisun City is the place everyone knows.

“I don’t think we would do as good if we moved,” he said.

LET’S EAT

Ironwood American Bistro changes menu with the seasons SUSAN HILAND

SHILAND@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

N

estled next to the train station in Suisun City is Ironwood American Bistro.

Owner Megan Smith opened the doors of her business in November 2014.

She has an extensive background in the industry, working in Florida restaurants in her earlier days, then coming to the West Coast to work as a chef de cuisine at The Lodge in Sonoma in April 2003 before moving on to Yabbies Coastal Kitchen in San Francisco and opening up Vin Antico in San Rafael.

Smith started doing catering in April 2014 and then moved into the restaurant space, which was once home to the Pane e Vino Italian restaurant when that business’ owners decided to downsize and take over running the small cafe in the Suisun City train station next door.

Ironwood is a place with homemade pickled jalapeños that go into the freshly made ranch dressing. The oysters are freshly delivered and never frozen. St. Patrick’s Day might be celebrated with corn beef sausages made by hand and braised cabbage.

“The menu changes with the seasons,” she said.

It is not your typical bistro in several other ways, mainly that it is very much supported by the local community.

Smith gets her fresh produce from Larry’s Produce during the summer months.

“Honestly, he is open during the winter for commercial business,” she confessed, “but it’s only for commercial businesses.”

The Bait Shop will help her with taking deliveries if she isn’t in.

“Since the pandemic, we did a little more takeout but over the last few months it has become primarily inperson dining,” she said.

Smith didn’t close her doors completely during the pandemic shutdown and her staff came in to work.

“It was just pushing a broom for a while,” Smith said. “I think that it made us stronger as a team.”

The terrible slowness is what really got to her during the past few years.

“People were home, then February came around last year and we went

crazy,” she said.

Smith had fans of the restaurant just calling in to check on her and how things were going, and that warmed her heart, she said.

One thing that surprised her was putting fried chicken on the menu during the lockdown and being sold out within a few hours.

“That was incredible. I was so thankful,” she said.

Smith then added it to the menu permanently on Thursdays and Sundays.

Since then, people from Suisun City and Fairfield have made a special effort to stop in and support Ironwood American Bistro.

Smith has added a moveable bar.

“It is freestanding and locks together, so I can move it anywhere,” she said.

Smith said she likes to focus her menu on doing things that can’t be done anywhere else, like her brandy cherries, which she makes herself.

Things are returning to pre-pandemic days little by little, she said.

Some of her customers would come in early for their orders for takeout last year, and ask to sit in the bar with a drink even though they were not open for in-service.

Smith thinks they needed to get out of the house for a while. Then they would go back with dinner in hand, to eat at home.

“I think this has been a window into the importance of community,” she said. “The things we took for granted are a little sweeter and more important today.”

COMMUNITY

Soroptimists celebrate 20 years of making a difference SUSAN HILAND

SHILAND@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

S

oroptimist International of Central Solano County is helping girls and women make their dreams come true. They also have honored those in Solano County who have made a difference in the lives of the people in the community.

Soroptimist International is a global volunteer organization that provides women and girls with access to the education and training they need to achieve economic empowerment.

Soroptimist International of Central Solano County will celebrate 20 years of service in June. They have made donations to the community of more than $35,000 per year in support of programs for women and girls.

The national Soroptimist organization celebrated 100 years of service in 2021.

“The plans put in place for celebrations had to change because of Covid,” said Lynn Recknagel, past president of the local club. “Everything has gone online.”

In celebration of their 20th anniversary, the group threw a virtual “Soroptimist Speakeasy: The Roaring ’20s.”

“It was a roaring success,” Recknagel said. “Even before the event, we had a lot of sponsors donating.”

Soroptimists help women and girls through financial assistance along with recognition of community contributions. They have several awards that help achieve this goal.

The Chance to Rise is an awards program for women in the FairfieldSuisun City area who have demonstrated they can overcome substantial life challenges, have developed a plan to forge a path for a successful future

ROBINSON KUNTZ/DAILY REPUBLIC FILE (2017)

Jessica Johnston, of Danc-Sing Stars Studio, accepts a donation from Soroptimist International of Central Solano County during their Holiday Luncheon at the Hilton Garden Inn, Dec. 12, 2017. through further education and/or vocational training, and for whom a financial award would help ensure likely success.

The awards program is a result of a gift to the club from member Sally Silvia and her husband, Jim Hudak, who indicated they wish to focus the program’s efforts on women who have experienced social, financial, personal, medical and/or other difficulties in their lives, only to find their futures derailed or stuck as they strive to move forward.

The Women Making a Difference awards luncheon honors the recipients of the Ruby Award, Violet Richardson Award and Live Your Dream Award.

The first Live Your Dream Award was presented in 2003 followed two years later with the Violet Richardson Award. The Ruby Award was first pre-

sented in 2017.

The celebration coincides each year with Women’s History Month.

The Ruby Award is named after the first president of the Washington, D.C., Soroptimist club, Ruby Lee Minar. The award acknowledges outstanding community achievements and comes with a $1,000 donation in each winners’ name, made to their charity of choice.

The Violet Richardson Award honors young women for volunteer action such as fighting drugs, crime and violence; caring for the environment; and working to end discrimination and poverty.

The Live Your Dream Award was created to help recipients continue their education and support their families.

Soroptimist

FROM PAGE 6

Soroptimist International of Central Solano County also have an Assist-a-Grad Scholarship program, providing scholarships for young women who are graduating from high school with plans to attend college. Applications are available in January each year.

These awards come from donations from the 60 members along with funds from community fundraisers such as Lunafest.

The Lunafest fundraiser is a favorite event in September each year, with the Downtown Theatre in Fairfield serving as the backdrop for award-winning short films made for and about women in this traveling festival of films.

This marks the 20th anniversary of Lunafest and the ninth for Soroptimist International of Central Solano County.

“It is hopefully going to be in person this year,” Recknagel said. “It’s always been very popular because people really enjoy coming out to see the films.”

The past two years the festival has been virtual.

“People have still been incredibly generous,” she said.

Soroptimist International of Central Solano County meets weekly at noon Tuesday from September through June. They are accepting new members all the time.
