Who we are...... by Kandi

It was my desire to have a coffee roasting business in Ligonier Valley for many years. I discovered a transportable roaster and knew that “now was the time”. My partner, Dave was crazy enough to agree to the idea and “so it began”. Our business was established in June, 2010

We ordered the roaster, made with all U.S.A. parts, from a small company out west, traveling nine days round trip to pick it up. It was quite the adventure--- as I’m sure the business will be too.

Our intention is to offer quality coffee that is fresh roasted. This makes all the difference in taste, as our increasing number of coffee “fans” can attest to. To maintain peak freshness, the beans are roasted after they are ordered.

Since our first event, Back to the Garden Market, “just down the road” from us, we’ve brewed and sold coffee at many festivals and markets. Along with purchasing direct from us….our coffee is sold at various other businesses from Rector to Pittsburgh with more in the works. A list is posted. Other businesses have expressed interest and we are receiving a lot of phone and e-mail orders. The positive response is very encouraging.

We hope that once you try our coffee you’ll taste the difference too and become a valued customer and friend as well!!

We’re back!

Attempting to blog again. Happy 2011!!!! We watched the sunrise on 1/1/11 with no hangover, coffee and sparkling wine. What a great way to start the year! We looked a little worse for wear given the early morning hours though.

We want to thank everyone for their support! Christmas was very busy for us. We had a lot of orders, many were for gift giving.

Also, we have delivered beans to McGinnis Sisters, Monroeville, for the second time after a month has passed. Currant Thymes in Ligonier has been selling our bags of beans for awhile now. Backyard Gardens in Ohiopyle, our first client, brews and retails our coffee. Soon our beans willl be on the shelf at Cascio’s Fruit Market in Somerset. We will be there to kick off the sales offering samples of coffee this Saturday at 10:00 am til ? during the Fire and Ice Fest.
