EVENT VENUE

Building3 was the perfect venue for our event! Guests enjoyed delicious warm drinks, and our activities we spaced out around the coffee shop and into the hall. 

Building3 was born out of love for family. After a year of research and development, learning the industry and seeking professional advice from like-minded roasters, they established strict standards and truly embraced the Specialty Coffee Culture. It’s B3s desire to serve the community, offer exceptional roasted coffees through a positive atmosphere, and extend a connection from the farmer to the consumer through a seed-to-cup model. 

SANTA SPONSOR
