Well, it’s here. Autumn. My favorite time of year. Fresh apples and cider, carving pumpkins with my boys, football, (GO STATE!) and cooler temps! There’s something special about fall, especially when there’s roasting smoke wafting through the air during those brisk night roasting sessions. And the smoke has been flying!
The Mister G Coffee Company is the official coffee supplier for Mitchell Field, home base for Indian Valley and Lewistown High School football. We are solidifying our fundraiser schedule, including schools and organizations raising money for the American Cancer Society’s “Relay for Life”. In addition, The Mister G Coffee Company has started supplying two more coffee shops, with another starting early 2010.
On top of that, we’re getting ready to kick off our “Autumn Special”. This year, for people whi sign up for a coffee membership or tour you get free shipping for the first 2 months! That’s freshly roasted coffee at your door every two weeks, and as always, you pick the bean and the roast, or opt for the Coffee Tour and sample coffees from all over the world!
I’ll also be sending word out soon about holiday gift baskets so stay tuned!
Have a great weekend and, as always, enjoy the coffee!
As Time Goes By, Part 2
One small step….
This summer marked the 40th anniversary of the first manned lunar landing. As I heard again the stories of the people who worked so tirelessly on that mission, I admired with new eyes the sacrifices, courage, and pioneer spirit that put humans on another celestial body.
I had to remind myself of that pioneer spirit several times as I contemplated moving The Mister G Coffee Company. I knew it would take work, energy, and a little sacrifice. (Don’t get me wrong, I am in NO WAY what-so-ever comparing my move to landing on the moon…) II had to take the opportunity when it was presented.
A year ago or so, I started supplying coffee to the Reedsville Seafood Company, purveyor of fine seafood. As part of an expansion on their part (and code compliance on mine) the owner and I agreed that I could use part of their new space. Win-win.
Another byproduct of this move is the opportunity to expand the coffee available to my customers. (This will be showing up on the web site shortly as a ‘Breaking News’ flash on the home page an a new ‘Order’ page.) I have brought in another Nicaraguan, also from the Diego Chavarria Estate, a Brazil Sweet Yellow Daterra certified by the RainForest Alliance as bird and animal friendly, and an Indian Monsooned Malabar. More choices to come.
If you havent gotten the chance to check us out, I suggest doing so. If not for you, perhaps as a gift. Coffee makes a great hostess or housewarming gift, or for any other occasion you can think of. I need not remind you that Christmas is coming….
Thanks for your time and, as always, enjoy the coffee!
