A THANK YOU NOTE FROM ME!
As we begin our 17th year of reselling green coffee beans to home roasters, I want to thank you all for your support along the way. I still love the thrill of the chase for high-quality and ethically-sourced coffee, and making it available to dedicated roasters like you. Hopefully, I'll continue doing it well into my retirement. I retired from my day job this past fall.
Two notes on pricing: (1) Coffee prices on the world commodities market are at an all-time high. It's great that farmers are being paid more, but that means we have to pay more as well. I don't lament it. But I want you to understand it. I keep my modest profit margin the same, but you will notice higher prices on this site to reflect the current reality. (2) Shipping prices keep inching up, too. USPS just posted its 2025 rates, which, compared to the recent temporary holiday rates, are slightly down on some parcels, and slightly up on others. Again, I try to charge you as close as possible to what I actually pay to ship your orders. And you always have the choice between Priority Mail and Ground Advantage, based on whether speed or price is more important.
Thanks again, and a happy and healthy new year to all of you!
