What: This year you’ll be able to grab a cup of coffee from Marley Coffee at Denver Fashion Weekend. Located in the heart of downtown, this bike caffe is known for roasting organic, sustainable and rich coffee. And while its headquarters is located here in Denver, Marley coffee has thick roots in its native land. The company was founded back in 2009 by Bob Marley’s son, Rohan Marley, and since its conception has been serving up conscious coffee from from Jamaica, Ethiopia, South and Central America. Each cup of coffee goes towards supporting one of the reggae king’s cause: empowering and supporting sustainable living within communities. So for those of you who want to have a side of philanthropy with your fashion, Marley Coffee will be your go-to this DFW.
