Hey there!
In case you wondered who is roasting your coffee and making the random assortment of crafty things for you to purchase, I will satisfy your curiosity.
My name is Charity Schuman. I work full-time as a realtor, but in my spare time I’m pretty much always busy with my numerous hobbies. Roasting coffee, painting, lots of reading, learning to bake, trying my best to keep my goldfish alive, and hunting and fishing with my husband.
When I was a young teenager the seeds for my love of coffee were planted. It was on one of my visits to my grandmas house, while her brother was there visiting from out of state. We were sitting in the kitchen chatting and having coffee, when I sat down with my coffee cup full of cream and sugar. My great-uncle looked at me and said “you’re not drinking real coffee unless you’re drinking it black” so of course, in an effort to impress my great-uncle, I dumped what was in my coffee cup and refilled it with just plain coffee. Let me just say, it was disgusting. But I was not about to give up. From then on I kept trying black coffee, until eventually it was bearable. I still never really enjoyed it unless there was plenty of cream and sugar to mask the bitterness. Fast forward several years later. At a get together with some of my friends, our host offered us coffee that he had roasted. He proceeded to tell us how much better it tasted then store bought coffee and encouraged us to try it plain before adding anything to it. As you can imagine, I was skeptical. But I tried it plain anyway. That coffee hit my taste buds and a whole new world of flavor opened up to me! Not long after, I bought some green coffee beans and roasted them in an air popper for popcorn. The coffee was fantastic! So I bought a real coffee roaster. Friends and family kept encouraging me to sell my coffee, so I gave it a go. My husband, who is my biggest encourager in all my hobbies, started roasting coffee with me and enjoys it as much as I do. We find a lot of enjoyment in the process of roasting coffee, but even more, we enjoy seeing people love our coffee. So give it a try. You might be glad you did!

Attention caffeine sensitive folks and late night coffee drinkers!! Decaf is in stock!
Did you know that the typical decaf coffee you find in the store has been decaffeinated through a process that uses chemicals to extract the caffeine? Gross! Thankfully there are alternative methods.
These decaf beans have be processed using only water to extract the caffeine. This method is called Mountain Water Process, or Swiss Water Process. This batch of coffee has been through the MWP.
The process of decaffeination causes the un-roasted beans to look dramatically different from the regular beans. They are much darker to begin with, so a medium roast will look like a dark roast when it is finished, which makes the roasting process more tricky and requiring me to pay closer attention during roasting.
Head on over to A Primitive Past Farm Market & Gifts and grab a bag of coffee! 4oz bags are available in the store. We also have by request, 8oz and 1lb bags.

These coffee beans come from a village in Ethiopia, called Banko Chelchele. The coffee farmers handpicked the ripe cherries, water processed the beans, and now here they sit on my kitchen counter just waiting to be roasted and enjoyed by you. Ethiopian coffees are especially delightful, in my opinion. They give a very smooth cup with bold flavor. I find that it has a subtle sweet aftertaste when drinking it black, but then add heavy cream and you've got a more chocolate sweetness. I always recommend to try drinking it black before adding a little coffee to your cream and sugar 😜
