About Us

I’ve been born and raised around the Cassville area, but for a long time I never really had the chance to be involved right in the heart of the community. Taking over Driftless Coffee Co. changed that in the best possible way. From day one, the community welcomed me with open arms and truly made me feel like I belonged. The support, encouragement, and friendly faces walking through the doors each day have meant more than I can put into words.

Kyle is originally from the Lancaster area, and this community has embraced him just the same. We’ve been together for three years and are getting married this August — something we’re so excited about as we continue building our life together right here. We’re definitely hardworking, driven people who aren’t afraid to put in long days, but we genuinely love what we do and the life we’re creating.

Between farming, trucking, and running the coffee shop, we stay busy — but our favorite part of it all is the people. We love chatting with customers, hearing their stories, and getting to know the familiar faces who stop in each week. Watching friendships form across tables and conversations spark between neighbors is exactly what we hoped this space would become.

We’re also passionate about offering fresh, local, and homemade products whenever we can. The beef we serve comes from us, and our pork is raised by our aunt and uncle — a true farm-to-table connection rooted in family and community values. Supporting local and sharing food that comes from people we know and trust is something that means a lot to us.

To us, this shop is more than just coffee — it’s about connection, comfort, and creating a place where everyone feels welcome. Whether you’re stopping in for your morning pick-me-up or staying awhile to visit, we’re so grateful you’re here.

From our family to yours, welcome.
