cowbell, warm inside
creative vibe inspires (us)
energized again

We are proud of our roaster and their coffees. Here's a message from their website: Batdorf & Bronson -- America's first green-powered coffee roaster. At Batdorf & Bronson Coffee Roasters, we purchase 100% of our electricity from renewable resources, use solar energy to help power our computer system, and keep 30,000 pounds of refuse out of the landfill each year with our recycling and composting programs. With all of these efforts, we are working to lighten our environmental footprint and move toward a cleaner future. Our commitment to sustainable business practices has garnered awards from the Governor of the State of Washington and the Environmental Protection Agency.
