Catahoula Coffee Co

Now for the action of the month. I'm actually in the back of Cadajula Coffee's parking lot, which just won best of the bay for their coffee, which is really good, might I add. And they're a local business that is also a budding green business. For this month, the action of the month will be to support local businesses and green businesses around your area. So what do you think about this green business movement that's happening? I think it's extremely positive. Just individual people taking responsibility of just not just expecting whatever they produce, they just throw away and it's expected to disappear. Cadajula, we've actually stepped it up quite a bit recently because we produce grinds after we brew the coffee. Technically, it's very good for gardens and we have several people who basically kind of line up to go after our tailings of espresso and brewed coffee. The majority of waste we have is, believe it or not, is from, since I'm a roaster, the burlap bags get recycled in the community quite a bit from certain times for artwork a lot of times for bag races for kids, but people use it actually to fill it up and use it part of their landscaping. So it's nice to not, The other items that we have are primarily 90 plus percent recyclable and we're doing a better job at becoming greener in that aspect of putting in recycling bins, plastic, paper, anything that can be reused. So you would consider yourself definitely taking a step towards the green business? Oh, absolutely. Oh, that's great. Absolutely. So while we're on the subject of local businesses in the community, how would you consider yourself different from other businesses in the area? Well, I'm the only coffee roaster in which we just actually won Best of Bay and that's quite an accomplishment, not only, and I really think not only for Cadajula that we produce a grand product, we do take care in a place of all Richmond.
