Blend of Hope Coffee Roasters

Blend of Hope started with a question from owners Lisa and Chuck: "How can we help create conversations to end the stigma around mental health?" Their answer was that conversations happen over coffee. They began roasting at home in Flowery Branch, Georgia, and grew into a small-batch roastery in Northeast Georgia that sells organic single-origin coffees, many of them Fair Trade, each roasted light, medium or dark to order. Blend of Hope donates 3% of profits to mental health organizations such as NAMI Georgia, Silence the Shame and Navigate Recovery. You can find the coffee at the Suwanee and Flowery Branch farmers markets, at Whole Being Cafe in downtown Flowery Branch, from the mobile coffee trailer, with free local delivery in Flowery Branch, and shipped nationwide. As they put it: "More than just a bean."
