The location is perfect for at least a seasonal coffee shop and even a B&B. Alma is on the main route from Eugene to the coast for people on bikes. There are also a number of cyclists who ride right past it, mostly on weekends. I have seen other locales a similar distance from a main city become very popular for weekend brunch among the active set. 

Perhaps this could add to both revenue and job training for the folks who take up residence there. It's always nice to be appreciated and to feel like you're helping someone out, and no one appreciates food and drink quite like someone who has just ridden their bike all morning, or even all day.

Whatever means they find to pay the bills, I wish them all the luck in the world and good fortune.
