I may be able to do some home/farm coffee roasting demonstrations at the NOFA-Northeast Organic Farming Assoc. summer conference 8/8-10 at UMASS, Amherst. If I get it arranged it would be nice to have some other Home Roasters attend. And of course we will be roasting greens from SM. Let me know if anyone would be interested.

Oh, Ed, I would love this - but I don't (currently-no change in site) have a car. I'm north of Boston, so it would take a long time to get there... by foot (ha).

I won't be able to attend, but have fun! I did a homeroasting demo last September for Parent's Weekend at my local University. I'm supposed to be back for it this year. We'll see... <Snip> -- Jason Brooks jbrookshttp://javajeb.wordpress.comHomeroast mailing list Homeroasthttp://www.homeroasting.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20">http://lists.sweetmariascoffee.com/listinfo.cgi/homeroast-sweetmariascoffee.comHomeroast community pictures 9upload yours!) :http://www.homeroasting.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20 |
I'm leading a homeroasting class at the local library tomorrow. It should be fun. ********************* Ed Needham "to absurdity and beyond!"http://www.homeroaster.com********************* |
Ed Did you make any pass-out materials for them to take home? I'm thinking about making a page or two with general info and resource info. Please let us know how it goes. Have fun, Ed B.

Took my Fresh Roast 8 to the parochial school where I help sometimes. Walked around to all the classes showing them that coffee was an agricultural product and how to roast. They thought it was awesome. Probably because it got them out of about 20 minutes of class. Kids are amazing. I have already had parents asking me about it... bill <Snip> Homeroast mailing list Homeroasthttp://www.homeroasting.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20">http://lists.sweetmariascoffee.com/listinfo.cgi/homeroast-sweetmariascoffee.comHomeroast community pictures 9upload yours!) :http://www.homeroasting.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20 |
