Carrboro Coffee Roasters

Scott Conary
​Our small batch artisan roasting facility focuses skill and craft in tailoring each coffee profile. By letting the coffee dictate the roast we avoid a standard roasting style or degree. Every coffee is different and must be respected for its unique characteristics. This is done out of respect for the farmer and a responsibility to the customer.

In addition to our container-grown herbs, perennials, fruit shrubs and trees, we sell our fresh blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, figs, muscadines, service berries, jujubes, native and oriental persimmons by the pint, and other fruits and nuts when available and plentiful.  We do not use pesticides on anything we sell.

Flat River Nursery and Farm

Joan Holeman
Since the 1700s, the Holeman family have raised their children and made a living on this 40 acre farm. Today, Charles and Joan Holeman grow greenhouse and field tomatoes, cucumbers, and other vegetables as well as strawberries, cut flowers and a variety of live plants including ferns, bougainvilleas, bedding plants, pansies, and mums. Growing Practices - Greenhouse tomatoes are grown pesticide-free with bumblebees for pollination and other beneficial insects for pest control. Greenhouses are heated with a hot water system using recycled wood for heat. All field production is on raised plastic covered beds with drip irrigation. Cover crops follow all crops, which are on a three year rotation. When pests become a significant problem, softer controls (organic, fungus, and bacteria) are used first and approved chemicals are a last resort. ​

Full Plate Farm

Matthew Ballard
Full Plate Farm is located on 19 acres of land near the base of Bass Mountain (of the Cane Creek Mountain range) in Alamance County. The market garden is currently 1 acre of annual fruit and vegetable field crops. I began gardening at my in-laws many years ago as a way to ground myself in the midst of graduate studies. After school, I apprenticed for close to a year at a nearby local organic farm before going into social work practice in community-based non-profits. Each season, after work and on the weekends and days off, the garden expanded with ambition (and obsession) until my spouse and I purchased land only a few miles from her in-laws and that original garden. After a couple years of building infrastructure on the property, and two young children later, while working a full-time job with childcare costs and out-of-control student loan debt, Full Plate Farm came to fruition.​

J'ellen preserves the just-picked flavor of the freshest fruits & vegetables in small batches. I started canning a decade ago, after coming home from a bountiful u-pick strawberry patch in North Carolina with 10 pounds. I set to work teaching myself how to can strawberry jam. Since that first batch, I have branched out and now make 5 flavors of jam—strawberry, raspberry, blackberry, blueberry jalapeño, and pear ginger—as well as salsa. I look forward to expanding the repertoire further through customer requests  or the bumper crops of friends who find themselves knee-deep in plums or kumquats when the tree in the backyard explodes. J'ellen will be at market with jams, marmalade and salsa.

Roberta Marasca Jewelry

Roberta Marasca
In this world of so many disposable goods, it is important to me to create things of beauty that will be kept, observed, and valued.  I believe that jewelry, which originates from a loving and peaceful place, imparts those intentions to the wearer. Cultivating a thoughtful mind and workspace moves even the act of forging a simple hoop earring beyond the trivial. I consider myself both designer and craftsman, taking joy in both the puzzle of discovering new forms, and the daily practice of working with the materials. The techniques I use are those of the traditional bench jeweler, including sawing, forging, stamping, soldering, and fusing. I have been influenced by the design traditions of the of the early 20th century European and American crafts movement, Art Nouveau, Scandinavian design, and the arts and crafts of indigenous and ancient peoples. It is my privilege to have spent the last 15 years drawing on the knowledge of those who have gone before me and expanding on it my own way. I can imagine no other life for myself, and I would hope in my small way to inspire others to cultivate their talents as well.
