Welcome to the fifth episode of Blow My Mind! We had the pleasure of sitting down with Jonathan Pastore, co-owner, Vice President, Director of Operations, and the esteemed “Coffee Daddy” of Bean2Bean. Jonathan shares his journey in the coffee industry and the exciting origin story of Bean2Bean, from a garage operation to the impressive landscape it has grown into today. We delve into the world of coffee, exploring everything from the exacting process of sourcing ingredients to the art and science of brewing the perfect cup.

Jonathan conveys the importance of community and creativity, the meticulous focus that goes into everything Bean2Bean does and the positive impact they’re making locally. The truly unique approach Bean2Bean takes in curating philanthropic local collaborations embodies the spirit of our Philadelphia city.
