Thank you to Maryville City Fire Department

Yesterday, we had a little excitement at the roastery. A small fire sprang up in our roaster. But please don't worry, nothing terrible happened. We didn't even miss a day of roasting, and nothing burned besides a little chaff accumulation on the roof. The fire department was right on it. Our wonderful Maryville City Fire Department and Police answered our call within less than 5 minutes. Now that's fast! We offered all of them some of our Ethiopian Yirgacheffe and our monthly special Pecan Pie coffee.  One of the officers asked, "What time is the fire tomorrow?"  And the chief exclaimed, "Out of my 35 years of service, this is the best smelling fire I've ever been to." So at least we had that going for us!  We would like to take the opportunity to thank our Fire Department and Police for all of their help.... THANKS!

Recycle, Reduce, Reuse

Continuing in the green movement, Vienna Coffee Company uses Recycling Bins. Since the beginning, VCC has recycled all of its corrugated cardboard waste. We also compost all the chaff and scrap coffee (please contact us if you need some nitrogen building coffee grinds for your compost.)

Also our employees use ceramic mugs instead of disposable cups when we enjoy our morning lattes or coffees. (Perks of working at VCC... free coffee!) 

In fact, VCC helped New Providence Presbyterian Church serve Vienna Coffee and Harney & Sons tea (another product VCC sells) in ceramic mugs instead of disposable cups after their morning services and tuesday night's Welcome Table. 

The more we can reduce the amount of waste going into landfills the better! And what better way to make you feel at home at NPPC then reusing a custom made mug every week! If you want to know more about recycling in Blount County check out their site...
