This is a story about our local co-op, Deep Roots, celebrating 50 years here in Greensboro. It was started at the college where I work, and it is also one of two grocery stores in town where we sell our Fireweed Coffee.

Some scenes from the anti-fascist bake sale today. We had a blast and a huge turnout.
Donations going to:
A three-way split between Siembra NC, indivisible, and the Glenwood community center called “Glenwood together”. They provide services for neighborhood community and especially children.
I know most of you are not near where we live in NC but still this is fun.
My coffee company, Fireeweed Coffee Co, is participating in an Anti-Fascist Bake sale today where we’re raising money for some great organizations and building community while doing it.
I’ll be bringing out the espresso machine and serving up some “wesspresso” as well. 😉
I will donate 30% of proceeds to the orgs for any orders placed today online today:
Today was a good day:
1. I took my 16 yr old daughter to get her license today and she passed.
2. Got a new account with the local bookstore for my coffee business. #fireweedcoffeeco
3. Went to said bookstore this evening to hear Eileen Flanagan, a Quaker climate activist and non-violence trainer, talk about her work.
Now off to bed early! Have a great night everyone!
I had a lovely morning running our coffee stand at the local farmer’s market with my daughter. She’s been helping run the coffee operation for 8 years now and it’s always a good time. Today was particularly lovely outside and busy!
Stoked to be sponsoring the amazing @Iconfactory #TapestryApp with my small coffee roasting business here in NC: Fireweed Coffee Co.

Any recommendations on a #Slack alternative that is small/indie and generally doesn't suck or coerce AI onto you?
I basically need it for a small team (my small coffee roasting business of 6 staff #fireweedcoffeeco) and need a couple different channels/threads to keep scheduling/roast orders/supply orders separate?
I’m going to try and venture out in the snowplocalypse to deliver coffee from my small business.
We must ensure everyone has coffee on this snow day!!! #fireweedcoffeeco
