We recently learned of a small batch coffee company that embraces the outdoor life so much, that they’re doing what they can to help with conservation and securing the ability to hunt in the future. In our opinion, that’s pretty badass. The company recently partnered with Delta Waterfowl to help secure waterfowl hunting in the future.

Here’s how the company self-describes:

Gundog Grind is a coffee-fueled lifestyle founded by those early morning hunts with your family, friends, and man’s best friend. It’s not just about the coffee … with every bag sold, we’re building for the future hunter in your family, by giving back a portion to conservation efforts across the United States.

Here’s the press release:

BISMARCK, NORTH DAKOTA — Delta Waterfowl is pleased to announce a partnership with Gundog Grind Small Batch Coffee. The exciting initiative will provide money from purchases of Delta Waterfowl Medium Roast directly to The Duck Hunters Organization — helping Delta deliver on its mission to produce ducks and secure the future of waterfowl hunting in North America.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Delta Waterfowl. Our team was lucky enough to grow up hunting ducks, deer and birds. We want to ensure we create more opportunities for others to enjoy our favorite pastime. There isn’t a better way to do that than by partnering with Delta. We created a special roast that will be equally great in the blind and for all those training sessions in the offseason. And hunters everywhere will love the label. Most importantly every bag sold is going to give significant dollars to the essential efforts of Delta Waterfowl.”

Gundog Grind co-founder and owner Joe Whitman

Delta will receive 50 percent of the profits from every bag of Delta Waterfowl Medium Roast, which features a stunning sketch of canvasbacks in flight above Manitoba’s famed Delta Marsh — where Delta’s leading waterfowl research, duck production, habitat conservation and HunteR3 programs all began. Hunters looking for the new coffee can find the special co-branded offering online and available now. Local chapters of Delta Waterfowl will also be able to buy this (and other Gundog Grind roasts) at a special price.

“Gundog Grind is a great new partner for us. The focus on dogs, conservation and hunting couldn’t be a better fit for us as an organization or as hunters. Great coffee giving dollars for our science-based duck production programs — which add many thousands of ducks to every fall flight — is really a win all around.”
