About Us

Who We Are

In 2022, Katie and Chris left their small hometown in York County, Pennsylvania, an area surrounded by cornfields and farms, for the wild landscapes of Alaska and the opportunity to live a debt-free lifestyle. After visiting in 2021, they knew they were ready for a change, and Alaska offered the perfect opportunity. The following year, they set out to buy land, build their own home, and create a new life.

Since moving to Alaska, Katie and Chris have dedicated the past two years to building their cabin and establishing essential infrastructure, including road access, a spring for water, and off-grid solar power. They’ve also developed a large garden, set up greenhouses, raise chickens for eggs and goats for milk. Alongside them are their two dogs, Diablo and Benelli, who are part of their Alaskan adventure.

Why Coffee?

Katie had always thought about opening a mobile coffee truck but never had the chance to make it happen. Instead, launching an online coffee shop gave them a way to share their journey, build a community, and connect with coffee lovers across the country.

Their coffee blends reflect the experiences and hard work that shape their lives: Branch Manager is inspired by their loyal lab, Benelli, who’s always by their side, Cozy Cabin Brew captures the feeling of winding down by the fire after a long day, and Workhorse Roast is a nod to the equipment that helps get tough jobs done.

For Katie and Chris, North to Alaska Coffee is more than just coffee, it’s about sharing their story and encouraging others to chase their own adventures.
