Dreams, Community, and Nature

Wild Savanna Coffee & Creations is a home-based, woman-owned business that started with a love for coffee and a hobby that has turned into a desire to share that love with the community.

It is named for the unique geographical landscape in which the business resides. The vast, wild spaces of the Illinois oak savannas are among the most diverse and enjoyable landscapes in the state. They are a botanist’s and a birder’s paradise but can be a paradise for anyone looking for serenity and a sense of freedom.

My goal here is to make good coffee available and affordable to the community, while opening the doorway for people to taste the most amazing cup they’ve ever had at home. Coffee beans make a long journey from their origin country, and we owe it to the coffee growers to give people the best version of what they have grown!

Good coffee does not have to be difficult to find or difficult to understand. Coffee does not need to taste burnt. Despite the endless combinations of fancy tasting notes, a good coffee is a good coffee and should be instantly recognizable no matter what tasting notes are claimed, and no matter how much is invested in tasting that cup.

Coffee-ing, is one of the most enjoyable parts of my morning. That is especially true when I am enjoying it with my family or my close friends. Hi dad.

In a nutshell, I would like to encourage others to use coffee as a catalyst for fostering relationships and enjoying the small things in life.

Thank you for visiting my page and entertaining the notion of supporting of my small business.

Stay wild,

Shana

Anything worth having is a lot of hard work and requires copious amounts of persistence. The secret is: you are allowed to have fun along the way!
