Giving back to the community while offering delicious Java and food is at the center of the new coffee in town – Holy Grounds Coffee.
Property of Matt Wilder and Steve Slifer, the catering truck opened its doors on April 15 in the parking lot of fencing solutions on Iowa avenue, at the intersection of Menards.
“It is a fairly good location. Many people go to Menards and Thesens, come out of the city this way,” said Slifer. “This location is a huge thing. I will have to extend the parking lot. He satiates himself at lunchtime. “
The immediate business rush has been sufficient for the owners to already provide a second location in Toledo. In the meantime, they build a holy terrain of brick and 30 × 60 mortar in the same building as closing solutions.
The brick and the mortar will offer a conference room for meetings equipped for presentations. The idea of building a journey was launched, but Wilder said that it all depends on what they are able to do.
“I think we will have that built at the end of the summer,” said Slifer. “Then we will have the trailer for events. We will be at Marshall County Fairgroups this year for the Fair. ”
In collaboration with Vince Frederick from Frederick Plumbing, five percent of the gross profit of the holy lands will be given to the needy causes of Marshalltown. The future location in Toledo, which should open by June 1, will give five percent of the gross profit to this community.
“He will not be immediately or monthly, but will probably be quarterly,” said Slifer. “It depends. Vince will let us know as he knows. We want to give places that really need it, such as school lunch for children who cannot eat. We will have a holy land account so that these children can eat. It’s not just for these children, and they need food. ”
Wilder added that school lunch is not the only cause, but it is important because many of these children do not eat at home either. They also want to provide churches and organizations that help the homeless and provide boots and clothes. These causes will be what they are targeting, said Slifer.
“Giving back to the community is always a good thing,” he said.
There is not much concern not to be able to restore. In less than two weeks, around 1,000 sales were produced on Holy Grounds. Customers were delighted social networks on drinks and food.
“I bet we see about 100 people a day, if not more,” said Wilder. “The community has really met to show us some support.”
“This is why we want to restore,” said Slifer. “We have just received the new logo,” restoring the community a cup at the same time “. It is a slogan so that people know when they come here, part of their money will help the community, the people who need it. »»
Wilder said they were doing everything, from the Americanos to the macchiatos, using coffee beans from Guatemala and Costa Rica who are roasted in Michigan. Finally, he said they wanted to sell bags of 1 book of coffee beans.
“We have marked our coffee. It’s a Saint Ground coffee,” said Wilder. “We have done all the research and everything we need to do to get the perfect roast.”
The most popular drink right now is white chocolate cheese with cold cold foam, a creation of Wilder and his wife Kristine. They talked about certain drink creations they have gathered, such as a bourbon maple and a white chocolate snickerdood.
“My wife Kristine is a huge contribution-she helps a lot,” he said.
They also offer sugar -free and decadeed options and make lotus – natural energy from green coffee – drinks. Kristine Wilder said that one of the funny things on holy terrains is that they have the capacity to be able to have their cold drinks. In this way, customers can drink it later without spreading or they can bring home.
For breakfast, Kristine Wilder said they were preparing the sliders, French toasts, pancakes, mini donuts and mini waffles.
“The cursors are popular and slide out the window,” said Wilder. “It’s a great success.”
Slifer said they also reproduced a well -known chili – the most requested food – which is available for lunch from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., or until closing.
“We brought him back,” he said, and Wilder added that customers absolutely loved him.
Not wanting to leave aside certain companies that deserve a certain gratitude, they said they get their meats and their cheeses from Sedlacek Whole Meat Company in Melbourne and hy -ve rolls.
Slifer said customers are asking for prolonged hours, but they are unable to do so now. With sudden popularity, they need employees.
“It’s hard to find people who really want to work,” said Wilder. “I don’t want to seem like if he doesn’t want to work – we haven’t found them yet.”
