How the Business Started

After holding off on her dream, Stephy stepped out on faith to launch her online coffee business “Mama Beans On Holy Grounds.” It is a name of endearment that was given to her by a young man who attended Whitworth 24 years ago. This name has been very special to Nobles-Beans. She is known as Mama Beans not only in the Spokane community, but also outside of the community such as Hawaii.
