Living in Whitianga for over 50 years, I have witnessed the rapid decline of our native trees/shrubs/grasses/food sources and habitat for our native birds, insects, bees and butterflies.
When the first issue of Coromind came out, I already knew it would be something special. I had been friends with Leo and Taylor for years, and watched them pour their creativity and energy into Altbays Table Talk …
I wake early and busy myself with packing a bag, fussing over a layered outfit – Melbourne’s weather can be more volatile than home – then anxiously sift through old writings in an attempt to reassure myself that I have at least a semblance of know-how, worthy of the weekend ahead.
The morning inside the cave was chilly and dimly lit. The only light was from a few coals still burning in fire pits from the night before.
Coffee LaLa was born of a fortuitous string of events.
Surprisingly, roasting coffee is a lot like firing pottery. Potters and cooks make good roasters.
