New Coffee Shop Opens in Sudbury: Good Earth Coffeehouse

A new coffee shop has opened in the Chapters building in Sudbury. Good Earth Coffeehouse officially opened its doors Monday inside Chapters on the Kingsway in Sudbury. The coffeehouse focuses on sustainability and various food options for those with dietary restrictions.

Meet the Co-owner

Co-owner Sarah Walsh, originally from Nova Scotia, came to Sudbury with her sister in 2010 to study nursing at Laurentian University. She worked as a pediatric nurse in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for eight years before deciding to make a career change that could give her more time with her family. She stumbled upon the Good Earth Coffeehouse franchise and was drawn to the company because it aligned with her values.

“I have two young children and I was interested in the sustainability efforts to make our earth better, as well as the idea of owning a coffee shop,” Walsh said.

Sustainability and Dietary Restrictions

Good Earth Coffeehouse focuses on sustainability and offers various food options for those with dietary restrictions. The menu is color-coded for vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options. The coffee is traded directly through the rainforest alliance, which deals directly with coffee farmers to cut out the middle man trying to make extra money. Sometimes they even find a female-based coffee farm and buy that coffee.

Liquor License and Grand Opening

The coffeehouse is in the process of obtaining its liquor license, with hopes to eventually sell local beers and hand-crafted cocktails. It will celebrate its grand opening on June 30, offering live music and free coffee cards. Walsh said the coffeehouse will eventually host live bands and open mic nights.

Conclusion

Good Earth Coffeehouse offers not only great coffee but also a commitment to sustainability and catering to various dietary restrictions. It’s a welcome addition to Sudbury’s coffee scene and definitely worth checking out.
