This week we're rooting for
FARMily.
Nurturing people & plants.
Outdoor + garden education for kids in Reno — hands-on learning that gets children outside, into the dirt, and growing their own food.
15% of profits from every coffee bag sold this week — online or at the café — goes directly to FARMily. The more bags we sell, the bigger the check we hand over Sunday night.
Why FARMily
Kids in the dirt, learning where food comes from.
Coffee starts as a fruit on a tree, picked by someone who farmed it from seed. Most people forget that — we did too, until we started visiting origin farms. FARMily is teaching the next generation of Reno kids the thing that made our whole business make sense: real food has a story, and you're part of it the moment you grow it yourself.
Katie's Community Garden
FARMily's flagship garden site — a working community plot where Reno kids learn how food actually grows, season to season.
School + after-school garden ed
Outdoor education programs that bring real growing skills into classrooms and after-school time.
Supplies + creative resources
Seeds, soil, tools, and the small things that make outdoor learning possible week after week.
Katie's Community Garden · Reno, NV
FARMily's flagship site — sunflowers, raised beds, and Reno kids learning where food comes from.
