MORE THAN A BAKERY

Wilson’s by High Watch brings great food and recovery together in the heart of downtown Kent, CT. Created by High Watch Recovery Center, our nonprofit bakery and café provides meaningful employment for people rebuilding their lives, helps reduce the stigma surrounding addiction, and supports access to extended recovery care through the Wilson Scholarship Bed Program.

Every visit helps create opportunity, connection, and hope.
