Susan is a knitter herself and wanted to offer products she used to have to travel over an hour to purchase. They carry high quality yarns and classes for knitters. CoffeeTree is also a destination for locals looking for supplies for fiber arts like knitting.
But they have been creative with their space and have included a store within a store. They have transformed the space to include a coffee shop in the old concession area, event space at the stage, and a business office in the old projector room, not to mention everything you would expect to see in a bookstore. It has morphed several times and is now housed in the town’s old single screen movie theater on Main Street. Our guest, Susan Thomas, is a managing partner and owner of CoffeeTree Books and the Fuzzy Duck Coffee Shop which have been a family business for over 20 years.
And it’s location inside Daniel Boone National Forest and the head of the Sheltowee Trace Trail make it a tempting destination for folks who like to hike, hunt, fish, and soak up nature. The university as well as the regional medical center in town give the community a diverse makeup. Morehead is home to a little over 7,000 residents and Morehead State University. This week we travel to Eastern Kentucky to the town of Morehead in our quest to explore cool independent bookstores in our region.
