Coffee sales support breast cancer research

In Honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the Vashon Island Coffee Roasterie is teaming up with the Kent-based Smith Brothers Farms to raise money for the Puget Sound Chapter of the Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

For each bag of coffee sold through Smith Brothers Farms and each bag of the special Best Breast Blend sold at the roasterie during October, 50 cents will be donated to the organization, which supports breast cancer research, education and health services.
