CALGARY/ALBERTA/MEDIA RELEASE--(Marketwire) - Good Earth Coffeehouse and Bakery, a Calgary based success story, has recently opened its second café in Edmonton and is close to finalizing sites for new locations downtown, in South Edmonton Common, St. Albert and Sherwood Park. The plans are to open 12-15 more locations in Edmonton within the next 5 years.

Michael Going, President and Co-founder of Good Earth says that "The two existing locations have been such a success for us that opening more locations in Edmonton makes sense. Good Earth is different from other coffeehouses so there is plenty of room in a bustling city like Edmonton for our concept".

Good Earth has carved out a niche in the competitive coffee market with its 100% organic, shade grown and fair trade coffee. The coffee beans are also small batch roasted for the freshest coffee possible. Along with its top quality coffee and espresso, Good Earth offers food that is made from scratch using fresh, wholesome ingredients and includes items liked Scones, Muffins, Cookies and Squares that are baked fresh daily. It also offers lunch specials such as Macaroni and Cheese and hearty Soups and Stews.

Good Earth is a model that a business can be successful by doing what's important for customers, the community and the environment. All the cafes are 100% wind-powered, which costs more, but Good Earth believes it's the right thing to do. Serving 100% organic coffee and non-processed foods is also more expensive but it's better for customers. Good Earth is also active in supporting the communities in which it operates. It is currently celebrating the Holiday Season by donating $1 from the sale of each of its popular Gingerbread Families to local charities within each of the communities that it operates.
