Wear Many Hats Episode 89— Scott Haven — Homecoming

Hey everyone it’s Rashad and this is Wear Many Hats presented by Dahsar where we talk about your main gig then we talk about your side hustle.

Scott Haven is one of the co-founders of Homecoming, a coffee shop plant shop based in Brooklyn, NY.

I met Scott when I first came to NYC not as an immigrant but as a worker in the arts so basically an immigrant working at the 67 West Greenpoint Terminal building behind Homecoming as a freelance graphic designer for a creative agency.

Liz, who is a good friend of mine from Philly works there said that they needed someone to cover a shift because they were going to Six Flags and because of my expertise in fine Barista-ing I was honored and that’s how I met Scott and Vanessa.

Vanessa is the other co-founder of Homecoming who has opt out to come on pod so instead we’re having an all boys club podcast episode.

All the plants surrounding me right now are from Homecoming, this is not sponsored content.

I am not held against my will to say that the coffee right now I’m drinking is Homecoming.

But I want you guys to know that if it’s any coffee I’m drinking it’s Star Homecoming.

Please welcome Scott Haven to Wear Many Hats.

I was going to buy vintage off of A24 x Intramural’s vintage movie merch but me and your brother couldn’t beat anyone else to the punch to get anything so we just went on eBay and bought other film festival merch. I like that me and your brother got the same mind set.

He’s into vintage too

You’re also a photographer, code for websites, and you consult for other brands as well right?

I’ve been sourcing Schott Perfecto Motorcycle Leather Jackets for a new Dahsar project since this is our 10 year anniversary. Should we do billboards haha.

Thanks for participating in the Dahsar Radio music playlists. It’s no NTS but gets the job done. From Sahbabii to Omar S to Black Marble. Your music taste is chef’s kiss.

Didn’t I see a pic of you and your daughter DJing on some decks at home or something or is that a different family?

Homecoming

Homecoming introduced Homecoming coffee born out of the pandemic but has been in the works for years, congrats. How do you feel?
