New Crops Arriving

We're looking forward to the arrival of several new crops at the beginning of May. On the water right now, we have:

Ethiopian Yirgacheffe - Always a crowd pleaser. This coffee has won countless awards, and being from the birthplace of coffee there should be no question as to why that is. Our yirgacheffe is a fully washed bean that is bright and comforting in the cup. Try some today!!!

Ethiopian Sidamo (natural process) - The sundried process that our Sidamo goes through produces a wonderfully fragrant, fruity cup. Heavy hints of blueberry are nicely accented by subtle splashes of clove and spice.

Guatemalan Loma Linda - This coffee is one of our best offerings of south and central American beans. Roasted to just after first crack, it presents a bright and refreshing acidity that leaves your mouth craving the next sip!!!!

Keep checking here for our new arrivals between now and August!!!!

Planet Bean Water Day!!!

Planet Bean Coffee and Guelph International Resource Centre are collborating to hold an event at the Coffee Roastery Headquarters late in April.



EVERYDAY IS WATER DAY


BUT ON APRIL 26 WE HAVE SOMETHING SPECIAL GOING ON!


Starting at 10 am we will be building and selling RAINBARRELS with the people from the Guelph International Resource Centre (GIRC) a local non-profit organization that has been involved in water conservation in Guelph for over a decade. You are welcome to join in and help us build. We will also have DISPLAYS from other community organizations working on water issues. From 1 PM until 3 PM there will be a free WORKSHOP on how to plan your water efficient back yard garden with Sean James. We will look at plant selection based on landscape and introduce you to some drought tolerant plants. Planet Bean brewmaster Elijah will be on hand to give ADVICE on how to brew the perfect cup of coffee.
