Antone\u2019s Record Shop is joining Warner Music Group and independent record stores across the nation in a pilot vinyl recycling program. Last month, a manufacturing study<\/a> by WMG, GZ Media, and Abbey Road Studios found that recycled vinyl can be successfully reprocessed into high-quality new pressings, opening the door to reduce physical media\u2019s carbon footprint and provide a new future for bargain bin duds and damaged records. Austinites can return damaged or unplayable vinyl records to Antone\u2019s collection bin for evaluation by the program\u2019s recovery partner, Virterras Materials.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Barrett\u2019s Coffee owner Travis Kizer was recently featured in COFFEE The Universal Language, a PBS documentary series exploring the social and cultural significance of the caffeinated beverage in eight cities. In April<\/a>, Food & Wine magazine dubbed Austin America\u2019s No. 1 coffee city, highlighting community-centered coffee shops like Barrett\u2019s, which hosts countless events at its St. Johns and North Loop locations and prioritizes thoughtful consumption in its sourcing. The coffee roaster purchases fair trade, organic certified, and women-produced beans directly from farms and brokers located across Honduras, Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Peru, and Ethiopia. The Austin stop with Kizer and his teammates highlights the bean-to-customer emphasis on fair treatment and connection at Barrett\u2019s.<\/p>\n
