Last month Brittany visited Aldea Development in Honduras. While she was there she made friends (imagine that), saw the coffee farmers in action, and learned about our coffee production facility in that country. Brittany learned other stuff too, and she just had to share it with you all. 1. The world is colorful What did Brittany notice immediately about the Honduran landscape?

We're proud to participate in the Muskegon Farmers Market, one of the best markets in Michigan. Every week we're at the Muskegon Farmers Market we meet new friends and see old friends and vendors that make this part of the state a joy to live in.

The Beaver Island Music Festival was started in 2003 because a few people wanted to hear "music in the woods." All these years later, the notes are still playing on this 13-mile long island located in the northern waters of Lake Michigan.

Aldea Coffee will be at the Festival this year for the first time, serving cold brew, lemonade, and other assorted coffee drinks. The photo above shows Madi at our Muskegon facility making lemonade for the event....

He took the trip with Jordan and Amy, a recently engaged couple, who were so kind to wear our gear, and brew some coffee for this photo shoot. See more of Josh's work at www.JoshRexford.com
