Port Washington named us as their first GREEN BUSINESS.

We're really proud that the city we call home has a program to incentivize green practices.  We're also happy to say that we're the founding member of the organization created by the city's new intern, Hanne Guthrie.  (Have you noticed the sign in our window?)  It was pretty simple getting the certification as Hanne is organized and pleasant in her dealings.  Being green takes a little more work, but our business ethics couldn't have it any other way.  Simple things we suggest you try:

*COMPOST!  It's easy to toss food scraps in a different container.  Create a little pile in your backyard and fertilize your garden with this stuff in a couple of years.  Easy and efficient. 

*REUSE:  Keep your own bags and/or coffee mug in the car.  Use it when you visit.  Please?


We hope other businesses in the area work with Hanne to obtain this certification and more importantly, we hope you adopt sustainable practices. 

Take Good Care.  Drink Good Coffee.  Be Good.
