Mini's Coffee Kickstarter Project

Please help us spread the word about our Kickstarter project

When my fiance and I moved back to his hometown of Finleyville, PA last year, we were shocked to learn that there wasn’t a single coffee shop in our new town.  In fact, the proximity between the two closest coffee shops is over 10 miles with Finleyville right in the middle.

It is a dead zone for a decent cup of coffee.

So, within a few days of settling in (ok, it was actually before we even unpacked the car), I was already pitching him my ideas for opening a coffee place.

I haven’t stopped since. I should also mention that coffee is pretty much my thing.  I went to graduate school for English, but ended up working as a barista (shocking) and realizing I loved it, but that is a story for another day.

Anyway, It didn’t take long before I was pitching my coffee shop idea to everyone I saw.  The UPS driver, my fiance’s grandmother, our neighbors, the cashier at the gas station, and basically every other Finleyville resident that would listen.  We talked to a pretty diverse group: construction workers, contractors, carpenters, small business owners, commuters and even the Chief at the local volunteer fire hall, but they all told us the same thing: “you need to make this happen.”

So here we are, about to launch a kickstarter project to try to fund our dream.  We should be launching tomorrow, we will keep you updated!
