I just finished reading an article in COFFEETALK's May issue about 'Fuel or Food... the global hunger crisis'. It was quite depressing! My husband and I have been chasing this dream for nearly 5 years now. We are getting closer to seeing it become a reality and now not only is the US economy having major issues but the whole world is.
My question to all of you who are actively working in the specialty coffee industry is... Is this a bad time to be entering into the business?
Let me know what you think and why.
