Local Vendors Show Their Aloha Spirit
Our third post in the Aloha Coffee & Cultural Festival series brings to you our much appreciated vendors. While the assortment of vendors was vast, there was a shared presence of Aloha woven through each booth, nurturing the feeling of 'Ohana, felt even by those new to Red Dirt.

Spreading the Aloha Spirit
On Sunday, October 23rd, there were no strangers at the Heritage Square Park in Arroyo Grande, CA. The owners of Red Dirt Coffee House made sure of that! Hosting Red Dirt's 2nd Annual Aloha Coffee and Cultural Festival, Jackye and Paul, with the help of countless family and friends, brought the spirit of Aloha and the tradition of 'Ohana to our quiet little town.
If you missed it, here is a brief glimpse at what is sure to become a yearly tradition for many (this will be the first in a series of posts, each highlighting a different aspect of the festival)...
Long before the first steps were taken to plan the Aloha Coffee and Cultural Festival, Red Dirt Coffee House embraced Hawaiian traditions and culture. 'Ohana, the tradition of family, made its way into our coffee shop from the moment we opened our doors. Loyal customers quickly became dear friends who then grew into our very own 'Ohana. Offering Hawaiian inspired drinks and delicacies, live Hawaiian music, and Baristas that treat each customer like family, Red Dirt has epitomized the spirit of Aloha.
Wanting to share these blessings with others, Jackye envisioned a day that would celebrate the Hawaiian culture, through song, dance, food, and Aloha.
