We stand with our brothers and sisters in Ukraine

We will continue to do all that we can to support our friends, families, and neighbors in Ukraine and everyone painfully affected by this raging war and senseless violence.

Birch and Rye is an American restaurant, founded by an American chef, and conceived in the spirit of peace. Our intention is to present food and stories that transcend borders – where all are invited into our dining room for a shared experience of connection and humanity – showcasing that a Russian-American female-owned business is capable of advancing the values of democracy, diversity, collaboration, and creativity.

We hope that our actions speak loudly of our opposition to this horrible war. In 2022, we raised $108,000 for World Central Kitchen and their aid in and around Ukraine. We stand with our Ukrainian brothers and sisters and we will continue to help in any way we can.
