Good Morning America Features Coconut Bliss!


The ABC News Program "Good Morning America" featured Luna & Larry's Coconut Bliss in their interview with dietician Ashley Koff. Here's the link (posted Aug. 16th).

The segment had some really useful infomation about coconuts and their health benefits.

It was exhilarating to watch them slowly zoom in on our Naked Coconut! We are very excited and grateful to have a television program with such a huge viewership include our product in one of their segments.

After watching the video , feel free to share this. If you haven't become a Facebook fan of Coconut Bliss or a Twitter follower, here are the links:

Thank you!

Hi everyone! I want to start this post by saying thank you to all the amazing fans and customers of Coconut Bliss, we're having an amazing year that wouldn't be possible without you!
When Vince & I (Kiley) joined the Coconut Bliss family this spring we saw an opportunity with Twitter & Facebook to reach out and connect with all of you and we've been humbled by the response we have received.
A little information about who does what around here; Vince is the primary manager of the Facebook page & I am the primary manager of our Twitter feed. However we both do a little jumping back and forth. Right now I'm also stewarding our fledgling Flickr page. Larry, Vince, and Myself will all be posting content to the blog, but I get to put up the really fun posts-the giveaways!

As I'm at the helm today, there will be a giveaway! To celebrate reaching 2000 followers on Twitter I'm giving away a T-shirt and a free pint to one lucky commenter!

To enter please leave a comment on this post telling us anything that comes to mind; why you love Coconut Bliss, what you would do with a free pint, where you would be rocking your new shirt, or just what the weather is there today! The giveaway will close August 21st at noon PST. Please leave me away to get in touch with you so I can contact you if you'll win.

If you know me from our twitter fan you know I'm a big fan of randomly generated numbers-which is how I'll be picking a winner. I'll add up the number of comments and have a number generated. If you comment is that number you'll be our lucky winner!

A little info on our awesome new shirts-they are printed on 100% organic cotton, & were printed locally here in Eugene! Vince is the handsome man you see modeling our shirt, the other photo shows the back of the shirt.

I also get the privilege of dropping a little hint about why you should come back here in a few days for a very exciting announcement! Let's see, what am I allowed to say today... Well we are going to throw a party.....
So come back in a few days for some more juicy details!
