THE BACKSTORY

Camino Caffeino started as a retirement dream. Inspired by my grandfather (pictured above) who enjoyed farming during his retirement, selling his produce to his friends out the back of his '86 El Camino.

As a kid I spent my summers on his farm and watched as he stayed in touch with old friends and regularly made new one ones all through a car and produce.

Growing up I realized why he did this. Not to become rich from selling tomatoes, but to become rich from building community, and I wanted to bring a similar concept to my community by serving good, locally roasted coffee to old friends and new.

Thanks to the support from my friends and family (and a lot of Facebook marketplace browsing), I found an El Camino just like his, and started my dream a few years before retirement.

Camino Caffeino regularly hosts pop ups around town and is available for hire at private or public events as well.
