Published Jan. 15, 2026

Meet Angela Surgeon

A vibrant new addition to our Warren County community and the heart behind Moosewood Creek Cafe in Tidioute.

Having moved from Virginia Beach, Angela and her family quickly embraced the spirit of our region, opening their doors and becoming an integral part of the local fabric in less than a year.

Angela’s journey is a testament to the welcoming atmosphere and robust support system available to entrepreneurs in Warren County. She highlights the “astronomical resources” and encouragement she received from both her local Tidioute community and the wider network of small business owners. Whether it’s the Warren County Chamber of Business and Industry or fellow business owners sharing their wisdom, Angela emphasizes that the resources are here for anyone ready to start their own venture.

“We have never once felt like we didn’t belong here,” Angela says. “This area has made us part of them without really knowing us.”

Angela’s story is just one of many—and this can be you. Whether you are looking for a supportive community to grow a business or a beautiful place to raise a family, Warren County is ready to welcome you.
