All About Us: Who? How? Why? Wow!
Aloha all,
It's Keala! Small town dreamer and owner of Da Mean Bean here in heavenly Hana. Aloha and welcome to our kope (coffee) site and mahalo nui (thank you) for taking some time in learning more about who we are and how we became.
We are most importantly a ‘ohana (family) part of this incredible community. We are also mama doer and daddy farmer; and keiki roamers and frolickers of the land and sea. And happily somewhere in between ALL of that we are 100% coffee lovers too. Rooted in 2022 and executed in 2023 Da Mean Bean came to life by the grace of time and lost.
At a time in life when all was great and I too comfortable, I pretty much lost everything I had going. It was an eventful and very humbling time, and a perfect time to reflect, process and let go. I always believed in The Universe always taking care of us; all in good time and that is what happened. March 2023 I went from nothing to a 3x5 lil coffee beaner opening its door that June!
Living in paradise doesn’t always burst with opportunity so when one does present itself you feel so lucky. By no means has it been easy but it has been way fun and after 2 years this endevor has been so much more than just COFFEE.
Never give up! Only look up...
Mahalo nunui, Keala
