ABOUT ME:I've been an avid home coffee roaster since 2004, always searching for high-quality, socially-responsible, and environmentally-sustainable green coffee beans. When I find them, I love to share them. I buy only current crop year, and move it from warehouse to my house to your house as fast as possible. I keep prices as low as I can. I'm retired, and this is my hobby business. Prompt and personal customer service is my commitment. I'll try to answer any questions, and give advice to start-up roasters. Just ask. I stock coffee grown on farms that pay fair wages, practice sustainable agricultural, and improve their community. I've traveled to coffee-producing regions, and seen how people live. Growing coffee can and should improve people's lives and respect God's creation. Through my importers, I can document where the coffee comes from, and how that farm operates. I summarize that info for you above. Returns:If you get the wrong coffee, or found it defective or damaged during shipping, I'll gladly offer you a refund or replacement, if you return the entire order before roasting within 14 days. Since good coffee is a matter of personal taste preference, and a great coffee can suffer from small mistakes in roasting, please don't ask for a refund after you roasted it and aren't crazy about the results. But please rest assured! I don't sell any coffee that I haven't already roasted myself, brewed, consumed, and greatly enjoyed.
