About Us
Rock Canyon Coffee Roasters specializes in roasting premium quality coffee beans from around the world. aGreat coffee for great peopleaa is the philosophy we have built the company on and we believe with all our hearts everyone should have the pleasure of fresh, craft roasted coffee at their table or in their business.
The company includes founder Craig Fulmer and partners Heidi Johnson and John Farrell. Together we have expanded the company with the purpose of roasting great coffee to make more people happy.
We think of coffee as a comfort food - it brings people together, inspires conversations, and makes people happy. All of us have met so many great people in our travels, usually over a cup of coffee. Craig met his wife Heidi over a cup of coffee. Craig and Heidi met John over coffee. We want our coffee to inspire collaborations, five hour brunches and epic first dates. We believe in bringing our community together, one cup at a time.
Craig Fulmer
The craft roastery was born from a desire to drink something other than burned, bitter coffee.
I started roasting in a hot air popcorn popper and after burning out four of those, my wife Heidi bought me a half pound table top roaster.
I tinkered and fine tuned my process and started giving coffee away to family and friends. Imagine my surprise when people started asking if they could pay for it!
As head roaster I continue to hone what I consider the art and craft of roasting coffee - creating rich, deep, flavorful brews without bitterness and bite.
I now roast with a hand built, American made, Diedrich Roaster which allows me to vary the roasting profiles and ensure the finest coffee.
Heidi Johnson
I came into the company after being a hard core tea drinker and Craig won me over with the smoothness in our coffee and I was immediately hooked.
Iam your go to girl for customer care.
Thatas me who hand writes the thank you notes for online orders. And itas me who you get to talk to when you have a question about coffee varietals, shipping dates, or what to serve at your next Sunday brunch.
Iam the voice behind the articles on our blog, posts on Face Book and photos on Instagram. Iam all about connecting with fellow coffee drinkers and hearing what youave been up to.
John Farrell
My interest in pursuing coffee as a business began in the summer of 2014 while part-way through a 17,000 mile rock climbing road trip across the United States and Canada.
Despite having experimented with a wide range of coffees while crisscrossing North America in my pickup truck, the best coffee I found happened to be within 15 miles of my home - here at Rock Canyon Coffee.
So, as fate would have it, I began working alongside Craig and Heidi in the spring of 2015 and serendipitously had the opportunity to propose a partnership that would bring us together in making more folks happy with our coffee.
Aside from roasting coffee, my primary role at Rock Canyon Coffee is to define and manage our strategic goals to ensure that our company stays on a solid heading in roasting great coffee for great people.
