Stocking Mill Coffee Name and Mission.

Stocking Mill Coffee Name and Mission.

     23 August 1777, a sunny day in Glastonbury, Ct, along the north side of Roaring Brook. 

     There sat the Stocking Mill Gunpowder factory. The mill was run by George Stocking Sr. and his four sons, George Jr., Hezekiah, Nathaniel and Elisha, and supplied gunpowder for George Washington's Continental Army. The factory produced a highly explosive powder used in small amounts to ignite a heavier powder in flintlock firearms. 

     They made the gunpowder using a mixture of charcoal, potash and sulfur, Eunice Cobb Stocking, George Stocking Sr.'s wife, helped deliver it to the outskirts of Boston or New York City. Eunice was returning from Massachusetts through Bolton Notch when the ground shook and a large, black cloud rose in the distance. Eunice rushed to the mill. When she arrived, she found her husband, George Jr., Hezekiah, Nathaniel and two other workers dead from an explosion at the factory. Her remaining son, Elisha, had been on an errand and survived.            

      She enlisted some financial help, built the factory up again and continued to supply gunpowder for the Army until the end of the war.

      This story inspired us so much we decided to name our coffee company after it. Our nation was fighting for it’s independence and gun powder is something our army desperately needed. She lost almost her entire family fighting for freedom. She delivered the gunpowder in what were known as “Angel Carts”. It was a dangerous job. She however took over the whole operation and rebuilt. She didn’t let sorrow, anger, or even fear defeat her.  Our freedom is a product of her actions and many others like hers. For this we are thankful.

     Many companies now make stands for issues that are being dealt with today. They use their resources and voices to bring attention and help fix whatever issue they are taking on. We commend that. 

     We have decided to do same. We already try to use our resources to help the veteran community and will continue to do so. But our focus will be on freedom. Freedom is the one word and one thing that makes any change possible. Freedom is what sets America apart and is what will keep America ahead.

     Work hard in your community to support freedom. It starts at home. Connect with others that support freedom. Stop spending money or resources on companies or areas that don’t promote freedom. Take care of your family. Raise your kids in the admonition of the Lord and with an appreciation for what we have here. Lead by example. 

     Whatever you do, wherever you go, be kind yet serious, and when you get there....arrive violently.

After retiring from the Army I began a quest for better coffee. I’d been ordering from Costa Rica. I tried BRC, decent coffee but I won’t support a company who’s politics blow with the wind for sales whilst proclaiming to be freedom fighters. Thank the gods because it led me to Stocking Mills. Best bean I’ve ever tried bar none!
Opera Non Verba!

I want to extend a sincere hello to the StockingMillCoffee Bean Team.
It’s magnificent work you all are doing helping our brothers and sisters that have served this wonderful nation.
Despite the dirty dick licking communist shitbirds in power in D.C. your support of veterans reinstills my faith in my fellow man and the brotherhood that exists for those of us who have been in the profession of arms to defend this great country and our way of life.
Please know we appreciate all of you for all you do and we sincerely hope BlackRifle Coffee and Evan in particular get fucked with a prickly pear cactus.
God bless Texas, God bless America and God bless StockingMillCoffee.
Sincerely
A Raggedy Assed Old Cowboy

Mein Kampfy Korner on Telegram introduced me to your coffee company. I have a good feeling a lot of fellow Patriots will be leaving “BRC*” because the truth is out about their true ambitions and ordering from True Patriots like yourselves.
Thank you!

patriots.win brought me here. Ordered some coffee and looking forward to enjoying it! Lets go Brandon!

best coffee ever! my son got me started on the chocolate and I had to order more. I have wasted too much of my life on other “coffee-like” substances. Can’t wait for my order!!

Like many other commenters, I came here after BRCC went Woke.
Loved that you offered 4 oz. “sample” sizes because it let me try each of your dark roasts for not a lot money. Gotta say, your Brazil single origin makes the best damn cup of coffee I have ever had (Swamp Fox is a close 2nd).

I’m in the same boat. Put in a order almost two weeks ago and it still shows unfulfilled (but they charged my card). I mean, I get that they’re busy but an update on the status would be great…

My wife and I love your coffee, we have family we want to buy for to introduce them but they have celiac disease. Are any of your coffees gluten-ated? The flavored ones?

I recommend patience on receiving your orders. Due to the political climate we are in these patriots are most likely swamped with orders. It took almost a week and a half for my order to arrive but it did and all the varieties I ordered were delicious. Blueberry, Chocolate and Coconut. The girlfriend went bananas for all of them. I assure you when the time comes to get more coffee, I will only be getting it from Stocking Mill. A company that supports what America stands for.
