Jackie was in her third year of Business school at Colorado State University when the idea of roasting coffee caught her attention. That summer Jackie purchased a 5 lb commercial coffee roaster and began taste-testing on friends and family. Eventually she began selling her various coffees at farmer’s markets where she gained a feel for the tastes that her customers preferred. As winter set in, Jackie’s customers began requesting local shops to carry her products and the rest is well…History!

Within a year, Jackie had outgrown her 5-lb roaster. She now offers a more extensive list of coffees, and can be found in more stores—but you can still find her eagerly discussing her passion for coffee at many local farmer’s markets each summer.
