About
Small batch specialty coffee roaster in downtown Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Every coffee is organic and roasted to present a distinct sense of place, with a lighter hand that highlights what is in each bean instead of covering it up. Founded by Steamboat native Gates Gooding, Seedhouse is now owned and operated by two Steamboat families, Ryan and Alyssa Stauffer and Kendra and Chase Lovins. Single origins on rotation, an espresso blend and a seasonal blend, sold by the bag, on subscription, and wholesale to cafes and grocery stores. The roastery at 1009 Lincoln Ave is open Tuesday and Thursday 9am to 4pm and Saturday 9am to 2pm.
Our Story
Seedhouse Coffee was founded in downtown Steamboat Springs by Steamboat native Gates Gooding, who taught himself coffee from cultivation and processing up and set the roasting philosophy the company still runs on: highlight each coffee's unique qualities rather than obscure them with heavy roasting. Ryan Stauffer came on as an apprentice and worked his way up to head roaster. Andy and Kay Leigh Kearns owned the company through the COVID years, and at the start of 2022 they handed it to four friends: Ryan and Alyssa Stauffer and Kendra and Chase Lovins, two Steamboat families who now own and operate it. The coffee is all organic, sourced with the farmers in mind, and roasted in small batches in the roasting space downtown. The team gives a percentage of profits toward people, projects and initiatives making a difference, both in the Steamboat community and for the most vulnerable around the world, and they like to see adventure and great coffee converge. Their line for all of it: coffee with a sense of place.
