Our Honduras Trip
Other than a few piles of laundry and our continued shock at the single digit temperatures outside, we've mostly made the transition back from a lovely two weeks in Honduras celebrating New Year's with our family. We have photos and stories to share.

We enjoyed lots of fun family time on this quick trip to Honduras -- celebrating birthdays and New Years together. We also had a chance to tour the coffee farm, talk coffee "business" with our coffee "suppliers" (Guillermo's brothers and brother-in-law) and see the new hydroelectric project Guillermo's brother has been working on (and enjoy having lights when it got dark). It was also nice to enjoy warmer temperatures and the lush green of the rain forest before we prepare to get through the remaining long months of winter left here in Minnesota.

It always seems easier to tell the details of a trip with photos, so we've put together a photo set on Flickr which you can check out at http://www.flickr.com/photos/velaeber/sets/72157612354660311/.

Coffee for your Office?
Now that we are doing all of our deliveries on Fridays, we can easily add office buildings to our delivery route. If your workplace is in St. Paul or Minneapolis and your employer or co-workers would like to place an order for coffee, have them contact us at coffee@vfamilycoffee.com or 651-587-5356. Remember, we do offer coffee already ground in 12 oz or 5# bulk bags for your convenience. (Filter packs or portion packs are also a possibility but only at fairly high quantities).
