The Interview

Tell us about Artisan Culture Coffee. What is your business’ story? Why did you decide to create/launch (relaunch) the business?

Preview of 2260 Buckthorne Place #179 location in The Grogans Mill shopping center opening on September 22, 2022.

Artisan Culture Coffee first opened its doors on September 22, 2020. My mission was to create a health focused coffeehouse that puts full consideration into what my guests are served. No artificial flavors, food coloring or processed food on the menu. Immune boosting beverages and quality sweet and savory options are available.

Relocating to The Grogans Mill Shopping Center will naturally increase foot traffic, create synergistic relationships with neighboring businesses and the weekly Farmer’s Market brings in a good size crowd. The 2260 Buckthorne Place #179 location is easier to access using the trails making it safer to walk or bike.

Who, where, and what do you serve? What products and/or services do you offer?

ACC offers mushroom coffee. For example, the House Special is a lion’s mane latte with oat milk and cinnamon. Lion’s mane stimulates neurons and is a mega anti-inflammatory. We also offer fresh mushrooms from local growers. We provide vegan and gluten free options. We sell and serve locally roasted coffee.

What makes Artisan Culture Coffee unique?

ACC hosts a composting program with ZeroWaste. Our goal is to compost all espresso grounds, create minimal waste, including packaging and provide an easy way for locals to participate. We are a coffee shop that intends to empower guests by hosting networking groups, health and wellness classes, guest speakers and events for the community, by the community.
