Last night we went to the annual gala for the Latino Economic Development Corporation, a non-profit that works with Latino families and Latino-owned businesses in the DC Metro.  They help individuals to realize home ownership, provide micro-loans to start and operate businesses,  provide support for facade improvements, and offer extensive financial training programs for Latinos.  Last night, they presented Martin with the Entrepreneur of the Year award, which was really exciting.   Here are some pictures:

As you can see, this is a new addition to our website.  I know, I know, we’re totally behind the curve on the whole blogging “thing”.   Well, we might be a little late, but we’re still excited about this new medium for keeping our customers and potential customers up-to-date.

My goal is to update this blog at least once per week with information pertinent to the activities of Mayorga Coffee–and anything else that might have to do with coffee, origin issues, and sustainability.   I hope that this blog gives insight about our company to those of you who are not too familiar with us and I hope that it contributes to the elevatation of coffee knowledge in the marketplace.

Here is a test of my picture-posting skills.  The picture is of our new 100% recyclable coffee cans.  Kerry was insipired by paint can ads when she put this layout together with the photographer.  I like it  because it shows the can, yet it shows the whole bean (which isn’t too common in canned coffee) and shows the different roasts. 

If you have any suggestions or comments, please post them with the entry or email me at martin@mayorgacoffee.com.
