One notable specialty roaster in 49 of 50 states — only Louisiana goes without

49 roasters from a nationwide Homegrounds/Stacker state-by-state guide, one per covered state, researched from live web pages on 2026-08-27. Hover or tap a state for its roaster, description, source-stated year, and source link.

year is an explicit founding ("founded" / "roasting since") year refers to another event (award, sale, sourcing milestone) roaster listed, no year stated not in the guide (Louisiana)

This is a representative directory — one notable roaster per state from a single nationwide guide — not an exhaustive census of every US specialty roaster; no authoritative comprehensive national registry appeared in the scanned sources. Listings and dates change: confirm through the linked source.

Only 8 of 49 entries carry any source-stated year at all — and of those, just two say it is a founding: The Coffee Exchange in Rhode Island, roasting since 1984, and Snake River Roasting in Wyoming, founded 2007. romesentinel.com

The other six years mark different events: George Howell's 1994 sale of The Coffee Connection to Starbucks, Proud Mary's direct farm sourcing since 2009, and award or company milestones for Goldie's, Metropolis, Penstock, and Lamplighter. romesentinel.com

Only one entry names a city — Pinewood Roasters in Waco, Texas; every other roaster is listed at state level only. romesentinel.com

The guide's "important attributes" field reads "Not specified in source" for all 49 rows, so character comes entirely from the descriptions — sustainability at Mylo (Arkansas), farm-direct at Penstock (New Jersey), B Corp certification at Passenger (Pennsylvania). romesentinel.com

Method: 49 rows extracted from a Homegrounds/Stacker nationwide notable-roaster guide, one roaster per covered state (49 states; Louisiana and DC absent), researched from live web pages on 2026-08-27. A year is shown as a founding only when the source text explicitly says "founded" or "roasting since"; other years are labelled as other source-stated years and blanks stay blank. The "important attributes" column was cut from the table because it reads "Not specified in source" for every row. This is a representative directory, not a census; confirm current details through the source link.
