Good Coffee Doing Good Things: Why Wintergarden Café Chose Starbucks

Schaumburg, IL (PRWEB) March 5, 2008 -- The Renaissance Schaumburg Hotel's Wintergarden Café proudly serves Starbucks for more reasons than the freshly-brewed coffee that they're known for.

?    Investing in various loan funds that allow farmers access to affordable credit

?    Collaborating through the farmer support center which offers training and technical support
