Thanks for the info.
This is a reasonable thing for the Kona coffee growers to do, among other things, to bring attention to the deceptive labelling.
We do not shop at Safeway as it is (we don't need to enough to go out of our way and already know they have few local food products), and we do not buy coffee that is "some Kona" and the rest something else. We do buy Puna and Ka'u and Hamakua coffee also, as well as grow a few pounds of our own.
