This Is the Only Coffee Grown in the Continental United States

- The conventional thinking is that you can’t grow coffee outside of the tropics. But Jay Ruskey isn’t a conventional thinker. He is a food innovator growing coffee in California. The founder and CEO of Frinj Coffee is the first person to farm the crop in the continental United States. Jessica Anselmi, a member of Panera’s food innovation team, visits Ruskey’s land in the rolling hills of Goleta to see how he does it. Teaser: Avocados play a key role.
Panera and its affiliates do not source coffee from and do not sponsor or endorse from Goodland Organics products in any manner.

Panera kinda ruined the video no lie
I agree. Corporations and rich greedy people ruin everything. I dislike them, strongly.
Shameless ad for Panera. I just wanted to learn more about how in the world he got coffee to grow in cali.
Dude you so right I’m only 2:09 in and I’m seeking a better video. I’m just curious about if I could possibly grow my own coffee… jeez
I would have enjoyed and appreciated the video more if the focus was solely on Jay and his efforts to grow coffee and not split with Panera’s practices and interests. The placard in the beginning of the video that showed that Panera sponsored the video was and should have been sufficient.
Ditto on that!
You are a good person. That is just my belief, I don’t really know that, but I hope I’m right.
Panera doesn’t purchase from this farm and they’re just shamelessly plugging lmao
Right? "Check out this cool guy that grows coffee in Cali, but we don't buy from him. Buy Panera, it is great!"
@@michaelmcandrews9474 literally wtf
Plus if they did, they'd just pull it out of the freezer, boil out in the bag, and serve it "fresh"! 🤣
Video: *exists*
Panera: It’s free ad space
Let's find a more stale format to use
Again i see u fingering man
Waaaay too ad like, but cool work he's doing!
Lmao! The lady from Panera for the sponsor of the video goes "No, we have absolutely no correlation with this dude and his Californian coffee farm, but here we are"
"oh and by the way our stuff is great too!"
Sponsored content is great if it lets you keep it coming with high production values, but this is really a bit too commercial, and not really up to the standard I think a lot of us have come to expect of this channel. I'd encourage you to make future sponsorships a bit more seamless, or you may find long-time followers like myself disappearing from your viewership.
So why wouldn't coffee grow in southern California or Florida where it is warm and sunny year-round and there is good soil and plenty of water? Other tropical plants grow there just fine. Only the southernmost parts of the US are consistently warm and frost-free, but in those places they harvest plenty of tropical fruits. For example, southern California and Florida are the only two regions of the US really suited for avocado cultivation and since there's demand they both grow a lot of avocados there and have a huge industry. Coffee is grown in Cuba and Cuba is very close to Florida. I would think coffee beans could be cultivated Florida. It's a shame I heard more about Panera Bread than US coffee production in this video.
Florida got a lot of tropical fruits that is common is south east asia...Thought coffee would be there too~~~ruclips.net/video/tgIvxPH-g2Q/видео.html
@Andro mache or because we already have an edge in the market. Since this whole trade war with China started, this is given Brazil an edge against the U.S. soybean market
It's more expensive to set up a farm in the US than to get it much cheaper from Latin America
@@javedakhtar Thanks for the response. That makes sense. Do you know why it is that coffee grows better at higher altitudes?
@@javedakhtar Thank you, that's exactly the kind of pertinent good information I was looking for! I take it that the kind of high temperature variability and windy climates available near sea level, like deserts, must be too extreme for coffee. Yes, higher elevations in warm regions sounds ideal. I'm reading that those are exactly the conditions in the US's largest (though still small) coffee producing regions in Hawaii and Puerto Rico, where coffee is grown in higher elevation mountainous areas. Question answered! Thank you very much.
THIS VIDEO IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY *SUBWAY*
EAT FRESH
I have a single, potted coffee tree...in Montana. I has produced exactly 2 cups of coffee worth of beans.
that's awesome! do you have a video explaining how you got it to grow?
The problem with your entire video is that this is NOT the only coffee grown in the continental US. Why you gotta lie?
They never say it's the only one , he was the FIRST one :)
@@Tyldama24 The title of the video states that it is the only one. He said otherwise, but the title is false and clickbaity
@@DrewCNewOrleans oh, the title! Yeah that's true. I agree there
It’s the first ever commercial coffee farm.
1:00 This isn't an ad
2:00 This isn't an ad
2:24 This isn't an ad
2:25 This IS an ad
2:24 This killed the video. Then again, she was honest. If she hadn't said anything we would all have assumed that Panera buys from this guy.
Why. Why does Panera shamelessly state they don't buy from him, but then say he's so great, he lives the Panera way! I don't eat bread but oh man is Entenmann's AWESOME!!!
Probably would've enjoyed the video more if the Panera ad wasn't so intrusive
As far as I know, although coffee planted in the tropics, they are usually planted in highlands i.e. cooler weather. Thus, California's cool climate maybe good for coffee plantation
Why is Panera interested in a coffee farm
P.s. I was first
James Dougherty ok

GOD BLESS JAY RUSKEY AND HIS FAMILY AND HIS GENERATIONS FOR ALL ETERNITIES AND INFINITIES FOR HIS UNIMAGINABLY AMAZING,INCREDIBLY EXTREMELY,IMMENSE HARDWORK,PERSEVERANCE AND SACRIFICES.
$75 for 5oz of Frinj Coffee - woof!
I don't care for Panera coffee and I'm so angry they stopped carrying pecan sticky rolls.
Good success to this man and his hard work.
Ok, so, in keeping with the crowd, I'm 22. 🙄🙄🙄
I agree. The coffee at Panera has a bad taste and I stopped going for breakfast because the sticky rolls were what drew me. Heat them up and they were wonderful!
Hated this Panera bread commercial just as much as I hate their processed “non processed” nasty food... have you ever actually tasted fresh food? Panera’s coffee probably can’t even stand a chance to this mans coffee. Wish this was better content.
Coffee keeps us awake
Can't tell if the video is really about the grower or Panera talking about how great their coffee is
Basically this is just a commercial for Panera instead of a real video.
Why not grow coffee trees in commercial greenhouses with grow lights?
Aside from a plug for Panera, the vid says absolutely nothing useful about growing coffee in the US. Slow day?
Very cool, never heard of this farm and i live here.
“Our coffee at Panera is complete shit compared to this stuff”
Panera's food is a long shot from what it used to be. Slimy processed meats come in plastic bags. Its not what you think. I used to work there for 6 years straight before it was bought out. I would not eat there again.
You growing Arabica? I live in Hawaii, and I've grown Arabica, but I can't find Robusta plants or seeds here. I bought some Robusta coffee from Robarica brand coffee grown in Vietnam, and it is WONDERFUL. I like this Robusta MUCH MORE than Arabica, so I am curious as to what you are growing.
I am lucky to be born and live in Indonesia, there are many types of coffee here.
Would have been nice to know how they can accomplish this, there's no way you care about your coffee Panera bread, as much as this guy does.
Wait, what!?! This guy’s farm is less than an hour from my house!?! Who knew? Thanks GBS!
Good story!
Love your vids
I DO NOT CARE ABOUT PANERA!! TELL ME ABOUT THE COOFFFEEEE MANNNN
Key would totally love to have continental breakfast with that continental coffee on the side...
My spanish teacher grows this coffee! Hi Ms.Plucinski!!!
I’m growing coffee but it’s just one plant I’ve been doing it for four years now I live in Southern California I’d love to come up and look at your stuff and get a few tips pointers I was looking for some good advice
Especially Brazil! Brazil is the top One producer of Coffee.
Pretty cool!!!! Impressive.. innovated for sure. MOST PEOPLE LOVE COFFEE, SO WE WANT YOUR PRODUCT.. WHERE DO WE GET IT?? LOL
Ahh no we were in Glacier National Park years ago and we had their locally grown coffee ! Also had all natural hamburger at the I believe IGA ? in St.Marys!
Hey, you got advertising in my learning! Not cool.
Legit never been earlier in my life
Hey look at this cool thing. Isn't Panera great? I'm really into cool things. Panera sure does care about it's consumers.
The thumbnail looked so pretty...
...then the ad started. Also this music?!
I heard that spongebob song at the 2:20 min part
The Daniel Plainview of Coffee
That's cool but Mariposa coffee has been in California since 91. Why are they saying they are the only one in the us?
I expect videos in CNN 5 Things to be educational not ads for chain restaurants.
that's awesome
I grow coffee in florida
2:42 just a series of the lady nodding silently
The only place that grows coffee and other tropical fruit in North America is Mexico and now I guess California now too I guess I would never guess California to grow coffee here
Now I want to know about the only tea plantation in the U.S..
Coffee is being grown in San Diego now.
love what the guy does, but the way Panera made this video about them too is an outright scumbag move. I had never heard of them before, but now I do and, because of what they said in this video ("Panera doesn't purchase coffee from Jay today, but the care that Jay and his team put into Frinj coffee really reflects the care that Panera puts into our coffees") already makes me hate them
I mean seriously, when you boil down this video into one sentence, it's basically Panera saying "Hey look at this awesome dude who has absolutely nothing to do with us, we're as awesome as he is, buy our products!"
So... this video has nothing to do with Panera bread. The fuck?
Bin with you since 1k
Are they marketing the fruit part of the coffee as well?
It's a good coffee story until panera's sponsored ad starts at 2:26 🤐🙈🙉
I'll love me some coffee bread
Would it have killed y’all to give us an extra minute of footage with audio of the taste testing? It was made quite clear that Panera doesn’t buy from Jay any longer which is fine but it’s even clearer someone is still salty about it.
Can u do a video on road bowling???
Panera lies but there more honest than McDonald etc i work at a food corporation and we literally made the panera mac n cheese and package it in 2lb bags kept in the freezer and ship them out. One time our company made to much so i took home like 4lbs of mac n cheese and 5lbs of potato salad lol
Fookin Panera.
Never heard of Community Coffee in Louisiana?
Dude should get some asian palm civets
DO NOT advertise to me EVER
panera bread is a bad restaurant
goo6 your right and it's over priced
Ceo of nature is mad
Gee I wonder who sponsored this video.
Cool people
How about highlighting the farmer for than the wasteful, destructive companies..
Isn't Panera a bread
Yeet
Nice Panera Bread ad....I see what you did there. 😑
I always thought your coffee plants would die in a second in California
I really wanted to like this video but the shameless plugs throughout the video literally ruined this story. 2 mentions in the first 30 seconds? Really?
This is just an ad
I love great big story!! But I don’t want to see Panera logo and that annoying Panera voice.
Your Arrows left out Yemen and Ethiopia which are places the best coffee is grown with Ethiopia no 1
Less marketing next time.
In the continent of the US? Hä
THIS IS A FUCKING AD FOR PANERA!! What gives, Great Big Story??
WAT
I doubt he’s the first person…
Stupid panera stepped in... like others said panera ruined this video... i want to know more about where this coffee is bought, are there different varieties, can u purchase it internationally and much much more....bet the owner couldve done a better job at promoting his product.. now i have to see if we can locate it on the East coast.. to buy it..
Fun fact for an average 12 ounce cup of coffee it takes 140 liters of water to grow
Panera used much to heavy of a hand here, it is off putting.
I’ve been growing coffee in Georgia for the passed 10 years. He isn’t the first at all. What a load of horse shit
I'd like to know more-is it fun and interesting? Enough to sell or share-it's cool to do something that is rarely done.
This channel has become quite fake since the ads
that was probably the lamest video humanly possible. Translation > A guy grows coffee in CA. He says he is first. Says it took innovation. Grows next to an avocado. < wow Such depth.. oh wait , this was an AD . too bad, caz I think a person grew coffee. welp ,, well never know.
Fourth?
Third
Lol but Panera coffee sucks
Panera, get outta here
10th
Am I first
No you are not
