I started Dusty Rose Coffee Roasters out of both a love for coffee and a calling to make a difference. I’ve always believed that a good cup of coffee does more than wake you up — it creates connection, comfort, and purpose. Pairing that with my passion for rescuing horses made the mission clear: this business would be about more than profit. It would be about giving back.

Every bag we roast and sell helps fund rescues that step in when horses have nowhere else to go. Some have been abandoned, others abused, and many are just looking for a second chance. Our goal is to be part of that story — turning every morning cup into something that brings hope, dignity, and care to animals in need.

For me, coffee and horses are both about patience, care, and trust. Just as roasting requires precision to bring out a bean’s natural beauty, rescue work requires compassion and consistency to bring out the best in each horse. Dusty Rose exists to honor both.
