Specialty coffee
from the Great Plains
Coffee starts as a crop and ends as chemistry. We respect both: carefully sourced, precisely roasted in Brookings, South Dakota, and tested in our cafés before it ships.

From the roastery
Coffee is agriculture and science. I've done both.
I grew up in rural South Dakota, studied biology, worked in a research lab at Mayo Clinic, and farmed organically before I roasted a single batch. Farming taught me that coffee is a crop, grown by people who know their land. The lab taught me to measure, test, and test again. Roasting is where the two meet: we bring out what the farmer grew, with the precision it deserves, and we make sure it tastes right to real people in our cafés before it ever reaches yours.

Questions
Can I skip, pause, or cancel?
Yes, anytime. Go to Manage my subscription and enter your email. We'll send you a login code, so there's no password to remember. From there you can skip a delivery, pause, change your coffee, grind, amount, or timing, or cancel. No fees and no minimum.
Is shipping really free?
Yes, on every subscription delivery in the US, including a single bag.
How fresh is it?
We roast to order in Brookings, so your coffee is roasted for your delivery, not pulled off a warehouse shelf.
How do gift subscriptions work?
You pay once, up front. Enter their address at checkout, and they get one 12 oz bag a month for 3, 6, or 12 months, shipped free. It ends on its own, so there's nothing for them to cancel. Leave a gift note with your order and we'll include it with the first bag.
Why are your coffees named after the prairie?
Because that's where they're roasted. Our house coffees take their names from the land around us: the grasses, the soil, the landscape. Our single origins carry the name of the place that grew them.
Do you offer office coffee?
Yes. Choose a 1 kilo or 5 lb size on any coffee in step 4. For larger accounts, see Wholesale.
