What's the Depot?
Read The Depot Annual Report 2009 »
The Depot is a renovated train depot in Hopkins, Minnesota that now serves as a coffee house, youth community project, and trailhead for area bike trails. It was planned and opened by area students in 1998 to create a chemically-free environment for teens.
The Depot also serves as an important asset to the community by providing students an opportunity to create their own place to learn, relax, and have fun while running a coffee shop and investing their efforts in the local community and economy. Learn more about the Depot Board of Directors.
