I love a good cup o’ Joe, and am getting more partial to a tasty cup o’ tea too. But whether I’m picking up something on my way to work, meeting a friend over a steaming mug, or working off-site, I like it best when I can make sure that my drink is doing something good in the process.

I want to support businesses that are trying to make the world a better place, and my suspicion is that you do too. This is an easy way to quite literally, put our money where our mouth is.

So here are a few of my favorite local altruistic experiences:

Dr. Bombay’s Under Water Tea Party

Refuge Coffee Company

Land of a Thousand Hills Coffee Company

Cafe Jonah

 

Have you been to any of these? If so, what do you think? If not, give ’em a try!
