Hey y’all — Jake from Arbor Coffee here ☕️
Just wanted to give you a quick update on how my partnership with River Room Tap / Catawba Riverkeeper went this December. It was a huge success. The support was unreal, and it genuinely encouraged me more than I can put into words.
Moments like that remind me that the dream of Arbor Coffee becoming a business I can live off of — and one that can expand, learn, grow, and push the reach of coffee — isn’t as far off as it once felt.
Through your continued support, especially those of you who show up for us at our café at Loray Mill here in Gastonia, you push us forward every single step of the way. You help make it possible for Arbor Coffee to be a place where people can make a living serving others, developing community, and creating something meaningful together.
This journey has always been about more than just coffee. It’s about building something rooted in love, relationships, and genuine connection — and I’m incredibly grateful for every person who’s been a part of it so far.
Thank you for following along, believing in the vision, and supporting however you can as this dream continues to grow. Truly — it means everything.
