About Us

 

At Arrowroot, our goal is to bring you excellent coffee in a way that is simple for you and sustainable for our planet and coffee farmers.

Simple For You: Great coffee shouldn't be complicated or a hassle. It should be a delightful way to start your day. We get how overwhelming it can be to sift through the mountain of coffees at the grocery store looking for a good one. Skip the struggle and enjoy barista-level coffee delivered to your door. Get great coffee in 3 steps.

  1. Choose your specialty grade coffee
  2. Select Whole Bean or Ground
  3. Place your Order

Kick back and we'll handle the rest. Everyone deserves a simple way to enjoy great coffee. 

For Our Planet: Enjoy every sip guilt-free knowing your coffee was roasted on a fully electric coffee roaster. Electric roasting reduces greenhouse gas emissions by almost 50% compared to traditional gas roasting. On top of that, we use solar power at our facility and carbon offset the electricity we use to roast, grind, and brew our coffee. 

For Our Farmers: We are meticulous about the beans we purchase and making sure our farming partners make a living wage. We purchase direct trade from farmers as our primary sourcing method and then from importing partners who can provide fair transparent relations with the farms they work with.
