Coffee Project

I just spent time with Zach, Jesse and Chris who are heading up the Coffee Project. Tierra Nueva has imported 3,000 pounds of Honduran coffee and is roasting small batches (6-8 lbs) while they learn the art of coffee. It is really good stuff. This is the full integration of Tierra Nueva Honduras with Tierra Nueva Washington and 25 years of dreaming. The project gives guys who are coming out of jail a place to recover and restore their dignity with a level of being discipled at the same time. This is a marriage of ecological concerns with social justice and spiritual development. Its really beautiful.
