THE ROASTERY

Located in a 19th Century barn alongside the scenic Pennsylvania Tow Path, just steps from the Delaware River, we’ve been roasting coffee with passion since 2006.  We carefully and conscientiously source our beans, continually tasting & refining our selections to ensure they live up to our highest standards.  We work with small farms and cooperatives, to help grow small business. We provide equipment, customer service and unsurpassed support to our wholesale partners, offering classes, literature, and promotions to empower those we work with to stand apart with their coffee program.

Our business philosophy rests in the belief that everyone deserves to enjoy delicious coffee. Our growth depends on the strong relationships with our Homestead Coffee community, relationships that we value to no end. That is the number one reason why we never compromise on our ideals or standards of quality.

By investing in our partners and using environmentally friendly packaging, we create better relationships with the earth and each other.
