Our story

Based in Jackson, Mississippi, EarthBlend Coffee is the vision of founder L. Socrates Garrett—an innovative entrepreneur who has been a leader in minority-owned business for over 40 years. Inspired by a commitment to quality, sustainability, and community, EarthBlend is setting a new standard in the specialty coffee world.

Garrett’s long-standing collaborations with top educators in agriculture and applied sciences have deeply informed our approach. By combining expert knowledge with strong community partnerships, EarthBlend gains a deeper understanding of the unique properties of the beans we source. This insight allows us to refine and elevate the roasting process, unlocking the full flavor potential of each regional variety.

From farm to cup, EarthBlend is fully engaged in every step. We work closely with our partners to ensure environmentally responsible and sustainable practices, while maintaining consistency and excellence throughout.

Our mission is simple: to deliver coffee of the highest quality—with bold flavor, rich character, and a commitment to doing things the right way.
