                          (A DEVELOPMENT-STAGE COMPANY)

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - Organization

La Jolla Fresh Squeezed Coffee Company, Inc., formerly North West Farms, Inc.
("LJFSC"), incorporated in the state of Washington, and its subsidiaries
(collectively the "Company") intends to manufacture, market and distribute
quality cold-brewed coffee liquid extract and gourmet non-alcoholic cold coffee
drinks.

Stephen's  Coffee Co., Inc.  ("SCC") was incorporated in the state of California
on August 13, 1993  ("Inception").  SCC is the operating company responsible for
the  development  of  manufacturing   methods  and  products  for  distribution.
Effective  November 1, 1998,  SCC was  acquired for  1,142,500  shares of common
stock representing  approximately 9% of the outstanding voting stock of LJFSC in
exchange for the common stock of SCC. LJFSC has had no  significant  operations.
For accounting  purposes,  the combination is treated as a  recapitalization  of
SCC.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts have been eliminated in
consolidation.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the historical assets
and liabilities, and the related historical operations of SCC for all periods
presented.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred
losses from operations since its inception and requires substantial funds for
its operational activities and sales efforts. These factors raise substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management is
seeking financing through private placements of its common stock. There are no
assurances that funds will be available to or, if available, that the Company
will achieve revenues sufficient to meets its cost structure. The accompanying
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Interim financial statements

In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements include all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present
fairly the Company's results of operation for the Three and Nine months Ended
September 30, 1999 and 2000 and cash flows for the Nine months Ended September
30, 1999 and 2000. These results are not necessarily indicative of the results
expected for the year ending December 31, 2000

Note 4 - Commitments and Contingencies

Lessee

The Company is the lessee of office equipment under operating leases typically
for periods of three years. The Company leases its office space under a
non-cancelable operating lease in which the terms are for a period of three
years.

Litigation

In November 1999, a former director of SCC made a claim against the Company
alleging that certain corporate formalities were not complied with during the
transfer of the assets of SCC entitling the plaintiff to unwind the transfer,
$150,000 in damages and additional shares in the Company. In November 1998, the
Company believed it had settled the matter by the payment of $15,000, the
issuance of 150,000 shares and the director's resignation. The outcome of the
case is uncertain since the case is in the discovery stage. As such, no
provision for loss has been made in the accompanying consolidated statements of
operations.

In November 1999, a shareholder of the Company filed a claim against the Company
alleging similar claims as above, specifically that the transfer of the assets
of SCC was fraudulent and is seeking declaratory relief to unwind the transfer,
and other damages. The Company is depending the action. The outcome of the case
is uncertain since the case is in the discovery stage. As such, no provision for
loss has been made in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Note 5 - Stockholders' Deficit

Common Stock Issuances

An executive purchased 2,850,000 shares in February 2000 in exchange for a
promissory note bearing interest at six percent per annum due in 2010 totaling
$534,375. No payments have been made on the note during 2000.

On February 22, 2000, the Company acquired all the outstanding shares of common
stock of Sorisole Acquisition Corp. ("Sorisole"), a Delaware corporation, from
the shareholders thereof in exchange for 3,500,000 shares of common stock.
Sorisole is a reporting shell corporation and has no assets or

liabilities and no significant operations. This acquisition is accounted for as
a recapitalization of the Company.

In the second quarter 2000, the Company issued 2,229,647 shares of common stock
at between $0.04 and $0.17 per share for total proceeds of $124,400. The price
per share of such sales of common stock were negotiated based on market
conditions. All such sales were made to unrelated parties.

In the second quarter 2000, the Company issued 175,000 shares of common stock in
return for consulting services. The Company valued the services at $0.20 per
share for a change to expense of $35,000.

In the second quarter 2000, the Company issued 1,062,500 shares of common stock
to two consultants, formerly employees of the Company, for $0.01. The shares are
fully vested upon payment for such securities, totaling $10,625. At the time of
the issuance, management determined the fair value to be approximately $0.10 per
share, based on similar transactions near that time. Accordingly, the Company
charged operations totaling $95,625.

In the third quarter 2000, the Company issued 102,997 shares of common stock in
return for consulting services. The Company valued these services at $0.15 per
share for a charge to operations of $15,450.

In the third quarter 2000, the Company issued 855,000 shares of common stock for
$0.15 per share to $0.20 per share for a total of $160,000. In addition, the
Company sold 1,300,000 shares of common stock for $0.04 per share for a total of
$52,000.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

This following information specifies certain forward-looking statements of
management of the company. Forward-looking statements are statements that
estimate the happening of future events are not based on historical fact.
Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking
terminology, such as "may", "shall", "will", "could", "expect", "estimate",
"anticipate", "predict", "probable", "possible", "should", "continue", or
similar terms, variations of those terms or the negative of those terms. The
forward-looking statements specified in the following information have been
compiled by our management on the basis of assumptions made by management and
considered by management to be reasonable. Our future operating results,
however, are impossible to predict and no representation, guaranty, or warranty
is to be inferred from those forward-looking statements.

The assumptions used for purposes of the forward-looking statements specified in
the following information represent estimates of future events and are subject
to uncertainty as to possible changes in economic, legislative, industry, and
other circumstances. As a result, the identification and interpretation of data
and other information and their use in developing and selecting assumptions from
and among reasonable alternatives require the exercise of judgment. To the
extent that the assumed events do not occur, the outcome may vary substantially
from anticipated or projected results, and, accordingly, no opinion is expressed
on the achievability of those forward-looking statements. No assurance can be
given that any of the assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements
specified in the following information are accurate, and we assume no obligation
to update any such forward-looking statements.

Our Business. We are a manufacturer and distributor of gourmet cold-brewed
coffee liquid extract, gourmet non-alcoholic cold coffee beverages and flavorant
products. We believe our proprietary cold extraction process and delivery system
provides the institutional and food industry with a convenient gourmet coffee
alternative that reduces labor, waste disposal costs, and production costs.

We believe that our cold-brewed coffee has the advantages of great taste, lower
acidity and oil content, and the convenience of instant liquid coffee. Our
liquid coffee delivery system eliminates the substantial amount of coffee wasted
every year by traditional coffee delivery systems that pre-brew the coffee often
making the coffee burnt, or bitter. Our coffee can also be prepared by simply
adding hot water. We also use a delivery system that requires no brewing; the
coffee is prepared only as needed, which, we believe, lowers labor costs, waste
disposal costs for coffee grains and filters, and costs of wasted coffee
disposed of because it is burnt or bitter. We are currently marketing the
following products:

Javalixir: Food Service & Hospitality. Javalixer will be marketed through trade
shows, Internet, direct sales to opinion leading customers, industry trade
publications and in conjunction with dispensing equipment manufacturers who are
used for turn key solutions for high volume coffee service. We believe that we
can convert existing customers of our competitors because of our convenient
dispensing format. These customers in turn will demand supply of our product
through their existing distribution channels, which, we believe, will force the
distributors to carry our product line.

Javanectar 32-oz. Tetrapak. We intend to market this product through major food
distributing companies such as Starbucks, which supplies the food service
industry. We believe that forming alliances with reputable food brokers will be
key to success in this sector of the market and will allow us to minimize
overhead for sales staff in the initial phases of our sales effort.

                                       2

10-oz Javanectar / "Frappuccino" style bottled beverage. Because introducing a
product in this category on a national scale is extremely costly, we intend to
initially direct our efforts within the Southern California region through
convenience stores, upscale grocery chains, and deli style restaurants chains.
As we build brand identity throughout Southern California, we anticipate that we
will expand to the east.

Retail Javalixir. We intend to compete with our retail competitors by placing
our products in supermarket in geographic regions that have already accepted the
concept of liquid coffee. We believe that the combination of our high end
packaging, competitive pricing and on-site sampling programs will result in
increased sales. We believe that profitable marketing campaigns we will
undertake. However, we believe this effort will benefit the company in terms of
building brand identity. We believe that brokers of specialty gourmet products
will be instrumental to our success.

Results Of Operations

Three Months Ended September 30, 2000 Compared To Three Months Ended September
30, 1999

We realized revenues of $10,117 from operations for the three months ended
September 30, 2000, compared to $0.00 in three months ended September 30, 1999.
We expect to experience significant revenue growth in the foreseeable future.

Operating expenses increased to $250,311 for the three months ended September
30, 2000, compared to $92,949 in three months ended September 30, 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources. As of September 30, 2000, we had cash of $6,876
and current assets of $15,376. Our current liabilities are $253,276, the
majority of which was represented by accrued expenses of $149,797.

Management believes that the existing cash and cash expected to be provided by
operating activities will not be sufficient to fund the short term capital and
liquidity needs of our operations. We are currently seeking to raise substantial
equity capital.

Our Plan of Operations for Next 12 Months. We are continuing to review our
business plan and evaluate various opportunities. In order to fund our
operations and adhere to our development, production and marketing schedule, we
anticipate that we will require approximately $2,000,000 in working capital over
the next 12 months. No assurance can be given, however, that we will have access
to additional cash in the future, or that funds will be available on acceptable
terms to satisfy our cash requirements.

Our success is materially dependent upon our ability to satisfy additional
financing requirements. We are reviewing our options to raise substantial equity
capital. We cannot presently estimate when we will begin to realize positive
gross revenue. In order to satisfy our requisite budget, management has held and
continues to conduct negotiations with various investors. We anticipate that
these negotiations will result in additional investment income for us. To
develop, promote and conduct our operations and achieve and maintain
competitiveness, we anticipate that we will need to raise significant capital.
Such capital may be raised through public or private financing as well as
borrowing and other sources. There can be no assurance that funding for our
operations will be available under favorable terms, if at all. If adequate funds
are not available, we may be required to curtail operations significantly or to
obtain funds by entering into arrangements with collaborative partners or others
that may require us to relinquish rights to certain products and services that
we would not otherwise relinquish.

                          PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

In or about November 1999, Michael Gilbert, a former director of the Stephen's
Coffee, Inc. and Stephen's Coffee Holding, Inc. and our current shareholder,
filed an action in the United States District Court, Central District of
California, alleging that the transfer of the assets of Stephen's Coffee, Inc.
