HOURS

Please, appointments only, until further notice. Our email is info@greencafe.com and our phone is (951) 659-6000.

Notice: As of May 5, 2026, Green Cafe is twenty-nine years old. Yes, we have been happily in Idyllwild the whole time.

SERVICES

We are an Internet service provider, located at an elevation above 5,500 feet. Our services include WEBSITE DESIGN, EMAIL, FIBER, CABLE INTERNET, WIRELESS and COMPUTER ASSISTANCE.

We are Idyllwild based and provide some specialized computer and Internet related services. Additionally, if you came up "The Hill" for the weekend and somehow forgot something technically important, we might be able to tell you where in town, or near town, where you can get the item.

Our primary focus is the advancement and preservation of the arts, culture and the environment through the use of digital technologies. We strongly believe that Idyllwild is much more than a collection of pleasant shops ... but in fact a collection of creative talent located in a dramatic environment that rivals any other area on earth.

ROADLESS BUSINESS MEETING

September 15, 2026 @ 6pm

There will be a one-hour prep call (e.g., Zoom) to discuss the local conservation issues that directly impact Idyllwild’s tourism and outdoor-recreation economy.

The topics focus on the Roadless Rule and our national monuments; protecting our national parks and other public lands from privatization and development threats, including the recent proposal involving Yosemite; and the impacts of financial cuts at the U.S. Forest Service, National Park Service and Bureau of Land Management.

It will be good chance to learn about these issues from the POV of local business. Topics covered include a review of hardhitting talking points, answer questions and help prepare to speak directly with our member of Congress about what healthy, protected and well-managed public lands.

All this will be in preparation of the local townhall type meeting, presented by Sierra Club members, on Monday, September 21, 2026, with our local congressman, Ken Calvert, who represents Idyllwild, California, as part of California's 41st Congressional District.

Longtime Idyllwild musician, Almadeus Star, who lost his home and his collective artwork and intellectual catalog to the 2025 Altadena wildfire, has a new album and it is only available on vinyl. The album cover (above) was created by Matt Mahurin, who is famous for directing and filming the official music video for Disturbed's cover of "The Sound of Silence." Star is anything but silent as he lays down his limitless philosophical and experiential thoughts to vinyl. Why is this album only available on vinyl? The reason has to do with his belief that the recorded analog signal is the penultimate way to affect a liberating and real aural experience. He finds alternative forms of music distribution can be laden with consumerism and thus come across as transient and unaffecting. The artist in Star wants his followers to have something tangible that maintains it value. You can find out more and listen to samples by visiting his websites InsiteAge.com and Almadeus websites.

LINKS SECTION

So much has changed in Idyllwild, we thought it wise to completely overhaul our links section for 2026 and 2027. We gather you will find that each entry embraces a substantially local and genuine nature. We will start with local non-profit organizations that focus primarily on people and businesses that call Idyllwild home. We will add a few regularly.

SATELLITE WEATHER

Satellite imagery is an indispensable tool for determining weather conditions. Below is a recent satellite depiction of the Western United States and the Pacific Ocean, albeit with state boundaries superimposed. The satellite image is updated every five minutes. If the land mass is brown or the circle is green, then its daytime. Blue means the imagery is from nighttime. In case you are curious, the green circle is centered on Idyllwild, California and the red dot approximates the hand of a clock at the time of image capture. A yellow circle indicates nighttime.

Current Satellite View: AIR MASS
GOES satellite view will return. Yellow circles are not in effect in Air Mass view.

*** To view an animation ***

There are three animated satellite sequences to choose from: 1 Hr, 4 Hr and 16 Hr. When clicked, the image below the tab is a snapshot of the cloud conditions from that many hours ago. For example, if you selected the 4 Hr tab at 5 PM, then the image shown below portrays the action at 1:00 PM.

To view the animation from that time to current, simply move your mouse pointer near the green or yellow circle below. Wait a few seconds for the animation to start all the while keeping the mouse pointer near the green circle. The last image will pause for about seven seconds and represents the latest view before the loop starts again.
