BONUS EP Join us this week with our final episode of Season 1 of the Why Bother? Podcast hosted by Gareth Davies as we speak with Will Wells, from The Artery Community Roasters.
This episode is an extra-long bonus episode that is full of great conversation. Will walks us through why & how he started this social enterprise back in 2020. We discuss the challenges and barriers folks with disabilities face when seeking meaningful employment. Will also discusses the importance of ethics within his business model; from his relationships with farmers to his customers.
There is no doubt Will is truly passionate about coffee, in this episode learn more about the roasting process, tasting notes and the difference between light and dark roast coffee. Filled with puns, the coffee The Artery creates is flavourful and roasted with care and gives back to the community. Host, Gareth, who is not a coffee drinker also tries coffee for the first time in years…providing lots of laughs!
