My Own Coffee Plantation



Some people like coffee. I think it is safe to say that it goes way beyond that for me. When we used to travel to Trujillo, I would notify the pastors I would be in town and would be at my " office " in the morning. Then, those who could would come to the Café Oviedo and we would together solve the problems of the life, church, family or whatever we were facing. On our recent trip to Trujillo, Matt got to see that first hand. He noticed that these pastors were much more relaxed and “fun” over a cup of café than in their church office.

Here in Quito, we like the Magic Bean. The food is okay, the prices high (for Quito) but the coffee is always good. We are now launching out into uncharted territory. We are going to be getting our own coffee tree! It will be indoors as it needs to be protected from the cold. Hopefully in 3 years, we will be harvesting our beans! Be looking for Café Pancho at a store near you.
