Cycling is high on the list of things we’re passionate about, so it only made sense to create a DOMA coffee that would support cyclists and teams. After all, a healthy community is a happy one, and it’s pretty hard to frown when you’re riding a bike. La Bicicletta coffee supports Fitzgerald’s Racing Team, a regional cycling team based out of Driggs, Idaho. This coffee has also supported individuals over the years, like Autumn Parham, a 17-year old who qualified for the World Championship in downhill mountain biking and needed help getting there, and Buddy Pegs, an organization (read: a family of three in a van) who toured the U.S. for months on end to get families biking together.

Maybe it’s natural for a coffee company to support deep thoughts. Each year we help sponsorTEDx Coeur d’Alene, an event that brings speakers and performers to spark new and challenging ideas in our community.

We show up to market each Saturday during the season to sell fresh coffee and support our local artisans and farmers. In addition to having a booth, we promote making sustainable choices, like bringing your own bag to market, drinking out of your reusable coffee cup, and using dried pasta instead of plastic stir sticks. Sometimes community is found in the little things, like sharing an awesome coffee, a fresh slice of bread, and homemade cheese and tomatoes.

DOMA partnered with the Spokane Riverkeeper and Dreyer Press to create “GOOD COFFEE”. This was a private label we used as a fundraiser for this local version of the larger Waterkeeper Alliance. As we know, clean water makes good coffee. This coffee helped to keep our rivers clean and our coffee good.
