Steve’s Nigeria Trip - Day 7

Today we started our day at Partners in Missions, where we went simply to see the landscape. They had trees, grass and fruit trees for their new school.  We then found the nursery where they had purchased the plants.

We went to lunch and had our first American food on the trip (for those of you who have never been to Nigeria, to have American food is a little taste of home).

We then went to the local organization to give them the computers. We spent time with them on the computers for the rest of the day.

    Hi Steve,
    Sounds like you’re having a good trip! Very busy! I’m working on our newsletter and am wondering if it would be possible for you to email me a picture or two with a story about it for us to publish. Let me know if it’s possible or if it’d be better to wait until you get back from Nigeria. . . .I’d like to have the newsletter done by Aug 5th! Thanks! See you in Wisconsin??!
    Love,
    your niece Amanda

Featured Coffee

El Salvador Cup of Excellence (1lb) / $13.50

Cup of Excellence is a program that works to bring together the best coffee to the consumer while bringing profit to the growers. This years #1 coffee went for over $20 a pound, and that’s before roasting! What happens is the growers select the best field or crop of coffee and bring it to the auction cupping in the Host country. This year’s cup of excellence auction was for El Salvador. We were able to sample 24 lots of amazing coffees and picked out what we perceived to be the best lot so that we could bring this exceptional coffee to you. It is amazingly fruity in the cup with bright lemony flavors, but also a subtle mango flavor as well.  It was very rich and very smooth, with a bit of a roasted almond flavor.  You won’t want to miss this, as it is a limited offering.  When it is gone, it is gone.  Enjoy!
