Save Culburra's coffee van
The issue
Coffee so good it starts fights
Ritual Habitual is under threat and the time is coming where we may have to make our voices heard in a positive way.
It all started with a news story on 2ST's radio station. A couple of one sided opinions from locals who oppose "pop-up vans" and neighbouring businesses that are irritated at the competition Ritual Habitual Speciality Espresso provide (see link below for story).
The facts:
Ritual Habitual have adhered to legislation, operated under council approval, provided world class coffee to Culburra's residents, visitors and neighbouring towns, and provided our small town with something new and exciting - in turn bringing people into the area that wouldn't normally visit. They have also offered a much needed heartbeat to Culburra Beach by providing a place to meet, greet and hang out with friends.
Ritual Habitual have done nothing wrong. They have followed all the rules, but because they have created competition, they are now in the firing line! Council have decided to meet next month in order to decide Ritual Habitual's fate - to decide the fate of your coffee (see link below).

Culburra Beach just got something amazing and now they could potentially take it away from us. Please sign, like, and share this petition to garner support for your coffee and the growth of your own community. In the end if we make more noise than the naysayer's then surely common sense will prevail.
You can also make your voices heard by contacting the Mayor directly to show your support for the van.
