At Joe Van Gogh, we serve the community of coffee from seed to cup, and we take particular care at every step to honor the bean. This care guides our approach to coffee sourcing, roasting, blending and quality control. Coffee Sourcing From our roastary in Hillsborough NC, we’ve developed deep, immersive relationships with coffee producers and importers across three decades. We work with these partners to source our coffees based on seasonality in the growing regions of Africa, the Americas and the Pacific Islands. We look to source Fair Trade, organic coffee and direct trade coffees through these partnerships, and we proudly source a large amount of green beans from women producers and especially from Café Femenino. Our long-term relationships at origin ensure our business together is sustainable and seeks to return more income to the communities where our coffee originates.
