Coffee, Community and Climbers

Check out this blog post by Drew. Drew and Alex have been hanging out at the Green Plow this week. Climbers from CalPoly, on a 3 month road trip, they've endeared themselves to the Green Plow staff by moving heavy ladders, unloading a supply run, & reminding us to enjoy this amazing place we call home. These two understand the word community...finding & making it every where they go! Thanks Guys!

Sending Candice on her Way!

So, our Candice will be leaving Green Plow at the end of this week. We’re really sad about it. She brings an amazing amount of wisdom and humor to this little community. Some would say that those two traits are an unlikely combination….but Candice has a unique way of combining humor and wisdom. She can speak the truth, make you laugh and think all at the same time. Candice is following her calling. She’ll be moving on to a job that helps girls get their life on track. Definitely a place that will use her gifts to the fullest!

We’ll miss you, friend, but we’re glad for your journey!

Join us in blessing our friend as she leaves. Take a moment to stop in and write a thought, encouragement, or prayer. Maybe Candice has encouraged you…please share that with her. And if you feel like…. drop in a buck or two in the bucket! She still needs to replace her car window!

One Day Without Shoes

Join us today in One Day Without Shoes. Raising awareness for the kiddos around the world without shoes, many of them in coffee-producing countries. Barefoot baristas...... Shoe donation box......

Thanks Jackie!

What a fun Friday night! Jackie Barrett and friends packed 'em in! Way to go Jackie! Looking forward to Dan Shanahan this Friday. Come join us!

Ribbon Cutting

It's Official.....We are officially opened! Actually, we have been opened since September, but today was our Chamber of Commerce Ribbon Cutting. Our kiddo's felt it was important to miss an hour of school and join us for this momentous occasion. (What kid wouldn't?) Our front facade improvement is almost complete...our amazingly GREEN awning arrived yesterday. Pretty cool...just in time for warm weather?

Thank You to the Community of Redmond

We sure love getting to know the wonderful people of this community. We want to send out a thank you to those of you who donated during to the biosand water filter collection during Thanksgiving. We, the community, donated enough to purchase bags of concrete, sand and gravel for a soon to be constructed biosand filter in Rwanda. If you want more info on this organization check out www.biosandwaterfilters.org. Thank you, generous ones!
