KAHA Coffee Roasters

Amesbury, Massachusetts

KAHA Coffee Roasters is a small-batch specialty roaster in Amesbury, Massachusetts, founded by Tyler Workman. Tyler grew up in New Zealand chasing flat whites, moved to the US, and started roasting in a popcorn popper because he could not find the cup he remembered; the name comes from the Maori phrase Kia Kaha, "stay strong". KAHA roasts a core lineup of blends alongside rotating seasonal single origins, brings green coffee in under hermetic GrainPro seal, and sells direct to door, wholesale to cafes, restaurants and farm stands, and as a toll roaster for private and white label.

East View Coffee Company

Kenosha, Wisconsin

East View Coffee Company is a small-batch roaster and cafe in downtown Kenosha, Wisconsin, founded by Jenny Ulbricht. Nearly all of East View's green coffee comes from women producers - a commitment that began at just over 50% of the lineup and now runs close to 100% - bought through direct relationships with farms in Costa Rica, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Mexico, Colombia and Brazil. Coffee is roasted two days a week on 58th Street and shipped carbon-neutral, and the shop doubles as a tasting room and community space.

Wild Nomad Elephant Coffee
Wild Nomad Elephant Coffee logo

Wild Nomad Elephant Coffee

Portland, OROnline Only

Wild Nomad Elephant Coffee was created as a way to help keep the jungle standing and bring Asian elephants back home to live free-roaming in the forests of Northern Thailand. Coffee became the perfect way to protect the jungle, create a path for elephants to return home, and work with farmers as true partners. Wild Nomad works directly with more than 70 Karen farming families who grow Arabica beneath the mature jungle canopy, without synthetic inputs, creating an economic alternative to clearing the forest for crops like corn. Wild Nomad buys the coffee directly from its farming partners in Thailand, imports it to Portland, and small-batch roasts it locally. That direct connection keeps the farmers, the forest, and the elephants that depend on that habitat at the heart of every decision. Wild Nomad is a Portland-based, woman- and LGBTQ+-owned roaster built around one simple idea: coffee can help bring elephants home.
