There's something special about a truly great cup of coffee.

It's more than just a morning ritual. It's the comforting aroma that greets you at the start of the day, the pause between tasks, the conversation shared across a table, and sometimes the small moment of joy that helps everything else fall into place.

That's why we're excited to welcome Vermont Artisan Coffee & Tea as our newest coffee supplier at East Warren Community Market.

In Vermont, we’re lucky to have makers who treat coffee like craft—not commodity. And that’s exactly why we’re thrilled to spotlight Carrier Roasting Company, a local roaster rooted in Northfield with a deep commitment to quality, community, and transparency.

Meet Carrier Roasting Company

Tucked in the scenic Mad River Valley, KS Coffee is more than just a small-batch roastery. It’s the heartfelt creation of Karen, a one-woman show who believes coffee should be approachable, comforting, and full of joy. For her, roasting coffee isn’t just about flavor — it’s about connection. It’s about creating something beautiful from the inside out and offering it up as a small daily ritual that makes life a little sweeter.
