Throughout July, the Fire Department Coffee Club is supporting the Lexington Fire Department- KY to help our fellow firefighters. Not only will you enjoy this premium blend of Peruvian and Mexican coffee and this vivid, royal blue shirt, but $2 from every bag of coffee and $5 from every shirt will go back to contribute to the well-being of those who bravely protect the city of Lexington, Kentucky.
Every shift, 8 firefighters including myself bring 20$ to work every 3rd day at Dallas Fire Station 8. We work 24 hours with 48 hours off. We pool that money together to buy breakfast, lunch, and dinner and hopefully have enough left over for coffee. We end up buying the cheapest stuff around (it rhymes with Smoldgers).
We also appreciate when businesses and families would come by and ask how they could help make our lives easier. We didn’t always have a good answer because First Responders are the last people to think they are in need.
Thats why Kyle and I came up with Caffeinate-A-Station because we saw a need to connect businesses with their local heroes by providing their coffee. Businesses want to thank their First Responders. First Responders appreciate having their coffee paid for, especially when it’s premium and from a Firefighter / Veteran owned roaster. After all, it’s one of the things that connects us all, caffeine!
This Holiday season, consider sponsoring your local fire or police department through the Caffeinate-A-Station program.
Because #Heroesdeservegoodcoffee and so do you!
Email us at roasters@firegroundscoffeecompany.com to sponsor a station or department.

🙏🏽 Reflecting on the recent tragedy at the Kansas City Chiefs parade, our hearts go out to the victims and their families. Events like these remind us of the importance of prioritizing safety in public gatherings. Let's come together as a community to support one another and work towards creating environments where everyone feels secure.
🚨 Safety First: It's crucial to have robust security measures in place during public events. Increased law enforcement presence, thorough bag checks, and enhanced surveillance can contribute to a safer environment for all attendees.
👥 Community Vigilance: We are all responsible for each other's safety. Encourage a culture of awareness and vigilance within your community. If you see something, say something. Reporting suspicious activity promptly can make a significant difference.
🤝 Collaborative Efforts: Event organizers, local authorities, and community leaders should collaborate to develop comprehensive safety plans. Regular drills and simulations can help ensure that everyone is well-prepared in case of emergencies.
🗣️ Open Dialogue: Foster open conversations about safety within our communities. Discussing potential risks and educating each other on emergency procedures can empower individuals to respond effectively in critical situations.
🔗 Solidarity: Let's stand united in promoting safety and resilience. Together, we can create an environment where everyone feels safe to celebrate and enjoy community events without fear.
🌟 Our thoughts are with Kansas City, and may this tragedy inspire positive change towards building safer communities everywhere. #SafetyFirst#CommunityStrong#KansasCityStrong#Swifties#CovertAlert
