Unemployment numbers in...Cowabonga!



BIGGBY has so much to be thankful for...happy people, fun times, and great coffee....but I had a Holy-cow moment this Friday! I was meetin' with Bill Ewing of Baremans Dairy(pronounced Bar-Mans not Bearmans :)) ...and he gave me the new official count... 153, yep that's right up 50%, last year we kept 100 cows busy 3 times a day, 365 days a year...and this year that jumped to 153, unbelievable!

I guess the thing to remember is that when you go to a BIGGBY COFFEE it's not just the shop that benifits...many, many, many other businesses do too...and our Dairy Farmers are a great example...Thanks BAREMANS....I'm really mooved!

Hmmmm...I wonder how many coffee plants are at the top of our production chain, or how much acreage it takes to grow the plants that produce the beans.
