Kona coffee growers - the only coffee grown in the US - have been sending 100% Kona Coffee to our troops in Iraq for months. The effort, headed by Kona Coffee grower, Robert Gowan, has sent coffee donated by a growing number of private Kona coffee growers. Robert is also the spearhead of Gathering of Eagles on Hawaii and a descendent of a long line of military family members dating back to the Civil War. It is a labor of love and appreciation for our troops and patriotism for all who participate.
