Narrow Road Coffee is now serving...

Narrow Road Coffee is working hard at providing great coffee.  

There have been lots of great comments that we have been hearing from those drinking Narrow Road Coffee!  Thank you for those and thanks to those that are purchasing the coffee.  Feel free to post on Facebook or leave a comment here about Narrow Road Coffee and/or the coffee that you tried that you liked.

Narrow Road Coffee also has some news to share...Narrow Road Coffee is now Fair Trade Certified!

Did you know that you can find Narrow Road Coffee at several places in Rochester now?  Here are just a few:

• Christ Community Church.  Several bags were purchased recently for the kitchen area of CCC and orders for the cafe have been pretty steady.  If you have been drinking coffee lately (real coffee...not the specialty drinks) at CCC there is a pretty good chance that you were probably drinking Narrow Road Coffee.
• Rochester Produce continues to sell Narrow Road coffee.  The bags are for sale and sitting on their shelves.
• Lasker Jewelers also serves Narrow Road Coffee.
• There is some news of an organization in town that will soon be selling Narrow Road Coffee as well.  Details are still being worked on but it is pretty close to being finalized.
• Coffee can also be ordered each week.  The guys usually roast at least once a week to fulfill the upcoming orders.  Just get your purchase in and they will have fresh coffee for you as well!  Sales information is available at their website and Facebook.

There are a few different kinds of beans that are in the works at the moment and those are:
1. Guatemala Huehuetenango (medium roast)
2. Colombia El Pital Microlot (dark roast)
3. Ethiopia Sidamo Decaf (medium/dark roast)

Chris and a friend in Rochester, MN started Narrow Road Coffee just over a year ago.  These two guys not only take time out of their work and family schedules to roast coffee and get it sold but also give away 25% of the proceeds to missionaries.

Our Tree & Mr. Silly

We ventured out of the house the other day to get our Christmas tree.  It is usually our tradition to get this after we return from our Thanksgiving travels.  Unfortunately, Quinn and I were pretty sick when we wanted to go so we had to wait until this weekend.

A storm was headed our way on Saturday so we got the tree just as the snow was starting to fall.  It was very pretty...driving over to Walmart North parking lot, passing Gander Mountain and finding our parking spot just across the street from Kwik Trip.  Ok, it might have been a little bit better if we were actually walking through a forest or a place that had trees we could cut ourselves but this works for us.  Plus, we had a coupon!  :)

The tree is up and we seem to have a leak somewhere in our tree stand so we delayed decorating until we knew that our tree was safe and secure and watertight.

Here are a few pictures of our adventure.

And...then the storm hit.  In about 2 hours we got enough sticky, wet snow to build things...and it kept snowing and we now have about 5 inches of snow.   Here is some of the snow that we got and the snowman (Mr. Silly Snowman) that Sid and the neighbor built that afternoon.
