In June 2023, Backyard Beans Coffee Co. took ownership of One Village Coffee, bringing two PA-based B Corp coffee companies together with a shared mission to serve people and planet through coffee
Backyard Beans Coffee Co. officially took ownership of the One Village Coffee brand in June 2023 — bringing the beloved brand back to local hands and strengthening a shared mission to uplift the coffee community through sustainability, transparency, and connection.
One Village Coffee, founded in 2007 and based in Montgomery County, PA, has been a trailblazer in ethical sourcing and social impact. As one of the original certified B Corps in the coffee industry, One Village Coffee has long prioritized relationships with farmers and investing in causes that promote clean water, health, and economic development at origin. In 2018, the company merged with Shared-X, an impact farming company based in Peru, to further deepen its support of farming communities.
Backyard Beans Coffee Co., also based in Montgomery County, PA, started in 2013 when founders Matt and Laura Adams began roasting coffee in their backyard. What started as a grassroots operation grew into a regional brand known for innovation, environmental commitment, and a deep care for people throughout the supply chain—from producers to customers. Backyard Beans became a certified B Corp in 2023 and continues to raise the bar for impact-driven coffee.
Bringing One Village Coffee back under local ownership is a full-circle moment that honors the legacy of the brand. “This isn’t just a business move — it’s a values-driven decision,” said Laura Adams, co-founder of Backyard Beans. “We’ve always admired One Village’s heart for community and quality. Now we get to carry that legacy forward.”
Both brands share the belief that coffee can be a force for good—building stronger supply chains, stewarding the environment, and creating workplaces that empower people. Under Backyard Beans’ ownership, One Village Coffee continues to roast in Montgomery County and remains dedicated to its mission: connecting farmers, roasters, and coffee lovers through ethically sourced coffee and a shared commitment to community, quality, and sustainability.
One Village Coffee and Backyard Beans Coffee Co. will remain distinct brands, each with its own voice and customer base.
