About us
At Black Fodder Coffee, we believe coffee truly makes everything better —but only the good kind. Picked at its ripest, patiently processed, roasted fresh in small batches to highlight its natural tasting notes, and skillfully brewed with deep appreciation for the gift it is—and for all the hands that made it possible to enjoy.
To us, specialty coffee isn’t just a caffeine delivery method—it’s a ritual.
We also believe every interaction holds the power to make someone’s day a little better. We’re always on the lookout for honest, values-driven people who will boldly represent our brand and everything we stand for.
