Our Story

From El Salvador to the High Desert.

"I came to the high desert in 2019 and found a peace I didn't know I was missing. Boulder Café is how I share it back."

— Jared Young, Owner

Jared has spent years creating jobs and access to education for people in the coffee industry in El Salvador. Boulder Café connects that work directly to Southern California: ethically-sourced beans, fair partnerships, and coffee with a clear story behind it.

Taking over the café was a natural next step — a 29 Palms coffee shop built around helping people in transition find work, find healing, and find a moment of calm in the high desert. Every cup is part of that chain.
