North River Roasters is Poughkeepsie’s first resident coffee roaster and the area’s only Community Supported Coffee Roaster (CSCR).
Modeled after the farm CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) that is prevalent in the Hudson Valley, we aim to make high quality, locally roasted coffee available to those who want to know where their coffee came from and how it was made. We offer different options for share amounts and distribute to three convenient locations in Poughkeepsie.
North River Roasters sources specialty coffees from farms that provide fair wages to farmers and that are employing sustainable farming methods, and that are primarily Fair Trade Organic or Rain Forest Alliance certified. When possible, we source from areas that represent the local population in Poughkeepsie, such as Mexico and Peru.
The North River Roasters Coffee House is now open at the Poughkeepsie Underwear Factory. The Coffee House, a partnership with Hudson River Housing, is open from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM Monday through Friday and 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM on Sunday.
