Maya Vinic in Mexico
Mayan women.
The Cooperative "Producers' Union Maya Vinic" is comprised of some 700 coffee farming families located in 36 highland communities in Chiapas, Mexico. Inspired by the traditions of their ancestors, Maya Vinic is organized and operates in keeping with a respect of local culture, language, reverence for the Mother Earth and traditional forms of self-government.
Maya Vinic was born out the wider civil society "Las Abejas", an organized response to the prevalent injustice in their communities and in the hopes of promoting positive change and autonomous development by pacific means. The plight of their communities came to the public eye in the aftermath of the infamous Acteal Massacre, where 45 men, women and children were killed by paramilitary forces and thousands more displaced from their homes.

Serious Relief for Your Lips!

zambeezi lip balm
Its certain that by now your dry, crackily, winter-worn lips are ready for reprieve.  Look no further!  Your favorite coffee shop has got a solution for you and your lips.

Zambeezi is an all natural lip balm made from organic beeswax and organic essential oils like lemongrass and rosemary.  These fine organic ingredients come together to create the most silky and moisturizing balm you will ever try!


The products in Zambeezi are produced in Zambia and come to the U.S. under fair trade standards.  This means that by supporting Zambeezi, you are not only enjoying a great product. You are also bringing jobs and income to rural African villages, and creating sustainable alternatives to destructive logging and mining in the pristine Miombo forests of Zambia.  This gem of a lip balm can be found at Just Creations on Frankfort Avenue and at all Heine Brothers' locations, including the
cafe at U of L's Ekstrom Library.

Thanks to the Magnolia Photo Booth, we are able to share with you one of our favorite keepsake's from this year's Holiday Party.  This photo is entitled "Never Shavin' Again".  We'd like to extend a big 'ol hairy "sorry" to Dustin for leaving him out of the photo, but hey- a goatee just isn't as cool as a beard.
He he he.
