Important Grand Opening Update & Fundraising Campaign Announcement
While we had every intention of opening at 605 Broadway Street, recent changes with the building owner have shifted our plans. This isn’t the end of the vision — it’s a new strategy.
Over the next two months, we’re taking this movement on the road. Through a major fundraising campaign, we’ll be popping up in multiple locations across Conway and Myrtle Beach with our food truck to:
Raise the funds needed to purchase a property outright or
Secure a permanent location aligned with our mission and operational goals.
This campaign is about community ownership, not dependency. Every plate served, every donation, and every show of support will help us build something lasting — a space rooted in culture, culinary excellence, and community impact.
Thank you to everyone who RSVP’d, donated, and believed in this vision from day one. Stay tuned for our mobile fundraiser event schedule.

UPDATE!!! Thank you for the outpouring of love and well wishes and love over this past week. It is truly a blessing to love what you do. I will continue to keep you updated on progress and major moves-please continue to pray much...
Join us for the official grand opening of Ms. Margaret’s Gullah T’ingz N Tea — a new cultural dining experience rooted in Gullah Geechee heritage, Southern soul food, and herbal wellness. Enjoy a full food line with authentic Gullah dishes, Soul Food staples, a fresh salad bar, homemade desserts, sandwiches and wraps, and our one-of-a-kind Herbal Tea Bar featuring organic teas and plant-based menu options.
💚 At the heart of this opening is our commitment to the community. Three days a week, our location will also serve as the home of the Helen P. Deas Community Food Program (HPD-CFP). This program provides hot meals, fresh produce, client registration, food distribution through our partner sites and access to critical-needs resources for families, seniors, and veterans in Horry and surrounding counties. HPD-CFP also hosts nutrition workshops, herbal classes, and cultural events like the annual Juneteenth Festival and Veterans Day Celebration. Please take a few minutes to take the Community Needs Assessment and help us determine the needs of our community. Click the link here:
