Who they are

Owen Miller is the founder and owner of East Alstead Roasting Co. — a small-batch, specialty coffee roaster in rural New Hampshire. From the back wing of his family's 1800s home, he roasts a rotating selection of single-origin coffees — selected for quality and transparent, ethical growing practices — to be shipped across the country or enjoyed locally by lovers of lighter roasts and unique flavor profiles. His new mobile coffee trailer, enabled by his loan, allows him to serve his very own coffee to the gracious folks he holds so dear.

Loan Overview

Term loan to purchase equipment and a trailer to support expansion of business.

In Owen's Words

“Working with Walden Mutual has been an absolute pleasure. We’ve never encountered a bank as proactive as Walden, with such an inspiring network of other creative food — and farm-related businesses. Not only have they helped fund the next big step for our business, they’ve also educated, encouraged, and nurtured our growth through the Seedlings Program. We’ve learned skills that will last a lifetime and buoy us for the next big step. If you’re considering making the switch — rest assured Charley and the team will take good care of you.”
