Welcome to Coalescence Richmond!
We are thrilled to announce that Coalescence Richmond is coming soon!
Our vision goes beyond serving exceptional coffee—we aim to create a vibrant hub where relationships flourish and community thrives. This space will be more than a café; it will be a gathering place where hospitality and connection take center stage. Whether you’re meeting friends, attending events, or simply enjoying a moment of calm, our Richmond location aspires to be a cornerstone of belonging.
Our vision for this nonprofit is to create a community-centered coffee shop—more than just a place to grab a cup of excellent coffee, but a space where people can come together, connect, and feel like they belong. As we work toward making this vision a reality, we need your help to get started. Your donations will go directly toward creating this warm and inviting space, covering essential startup costs such as equipment, supplies, and renovations. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to opening the doors and serving not only great coffee but also the community we all love. We invite you to be part of something bigger—a movement to build a place where everyone can belong.

Meet Tricia Peterson, Richmond’s Location Manager and Coalescence Coffee Company’s Executive Director.
Both Tricia and Neil have always been passionate about building community. From hosting gatherings to fostering meaningful conversations, they have a long history of creating spaces where everyone feels valued and included.
They believe true connection happens when people are invited to bring their authentic selves, and they’ve dedicated their lives to making this vision a reality. Now, they are bringing this same spirit to Coalescence in Richmond, determined to transform our new location into a welcoming haven for all!
Meet Tricia & Neil!
