Chad,
What about a Southwest regionally known and burgeoning artist that is coffee minded for ArtPrize? (i.e. me)
www.fostercollection.com - check out my work and see if I would fit. I would love to create a body of work revolving around coffee for the show.

Hi Chad, I just took another look at the Evo website. Looks like you guys are doing some pretty cool stuff. I love the notions of working for justice and investing back into the communities. I'd love to hear more about it. It is a non-profit in that all profit goes back to the farming communities? Is it spiritually/religiously affiliated?

Hi Chad, I forgot to ask, of the three beans that you have do any of them work well as a single origin espresso?
Cheers.

Not sure how much I'll need yet. Maybe 30 lbs to start with. Send me a price list/description and I'll get back to you.

Hey Chad,
Thanks for the comment. I like the Evo website a lot. Madcap looks v. cool too. I have a similar vision for whatever capacity I end up in with coffee, even if it just remains as a hobby. I'll be selling at my local farmers market starting this June and am still hunting as hard as I can to get the best quality green beans(meaning premium product via sustainable, relational means) Do you guys sell or can you point me in the right direction, offer any tips? Peace.
