Here we are coming into our 4th year of successfully building up the clientele with the coffee cart, and the whole world shuts down. Everyone is asking me how my business is doing during this time. And I respond with, it isn’t doing anything now. The main clients I have are corporate, where I go to their campus and bust out 100 coffees or so, and continue on. Since all campuses are shut down, that means my coffee cart is too.
Thankfully, I am still roasting my Friend Blend, and slinging out retail. I am also providing kits for Zoom on a monthly basis as a way to stay connected with them. In the meantime, the cart lives in my living room and I am using my van for date nights with my partner.
“If each day falls inside each night,
There exists a well
where clarity
is imprisoned.
We need to sit on the rim
of the well of darkness
and fish for fallen light,
with patience.”
Pablo Neruda
