Old Linn Run Coffee Bean Roastery : Labor Day Weekend

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!!

Labor Day Weekend

Have been a bad girl......neglecting the blog. Sorry!

We've been busy trying to get this business up and running well.

Last Saturday we were at the Tomato Festival @ West Overton Museum. Had fun, met lots of nice people and received a lot of great reviews with our coffee!

This Saturday & Sunday-Labor Day weekend, we will be at Music in the Mountains @ Ohiopyle.

Our coffee is being retailed on the shelves + brewed at Backyard Gardens @ Ohiopyle as well.

Yeah!

We will also be at the Flax Scutching Festival, Stahlstown Sept. 11& 12

and

Sept. 18th, we are in the works with donating our coffee to be served at the Loyalhanna Watershed annual benefit.

Hope to see some of our friends at any or all of these!
