You may think that National Coffee Day is an occasion to drink coffee and enjoy it in its various forms. Maybe you even thought you’d score a freebie or two. And to some extent, you are correct. But every Sept. 29 (which is a Friday this year) not only is coffee celebrated, but the hard work of those who are involved in its production.

The goal of National Coffee Day is to promote, and show appreciation for, the millions of coffee farmers who labor to bring us the most aromatic and comforting drink enjoyed around the globe. Whether it’s served hot or cold, called a cappuccino, macchiato, cortado, flat white, espresso or one of the dozens of other awesome coffee iterations, join us in celebrating the drink and honoring those who make the magic happen.
