Tell us about your founder. What was her inspiration for opening the business?
Peg Botto started out in the human services industry working with people with intellectual disabilities. Peg then went to the Restaurant School and worked in restaurants around the city before opening Cosmic Catering at the Chestnut Hill Farmers Market. She operated a prepared foods stand for 10 years. While there she hired special needs people, training them from dishwashers to cooks and bakers. Now on Boathouse row her mission has become a reality by founding the Cosmic Foundation through the cafe where she has trained around 15 special needs staff in a variety of positions.
