Founders Lisa and Wei recently visited Kauai and toured the coffee plantation where our featured coffee is grown and harvested. They experienced first hand the warm sunny weather, volcanic soil, and ocean breezes that combine to produce a bean that is less acidic and broader in taste.
They learned that the wonderful consistency of Kauai coffee’s is due to all the beans being grown on a single estate. To keep the estate pristine and productive for future generations the plantation uses many environmentally friendly processes to reduce its impact on the estate and this beautiful island; water used for processing the beans is filtered and reused for irrigation, 100% renewable energy is used via the city’s hydro electricity plant, water and fertilizer is applied directly to the roots making them the largest drip irrigation coffee estate in the world!
We are featuring Kauai coffee during the months of March and April. Try a cup and taste why we love this tropical and well balanced coffee.
Our feature is Terry Blackhawk, an award-winning poet, teacher, founder and director of the Inside Out Literary Arts Project in Detroit. Terry will read from her new book The Dropped Hand and from the new women’s poetry anthology When She Named Fire. Terry is the author of Body & Field, and two chapbooks, Trio: Voices from the Myths, and Greatest Hits, from Pudding House Press. Her second full-length poetry collection, Escape Artist, received the 2002 John Ciardi Prize.
Open mic follows.
