THE COMMUNITY
Born in North Minneapolis and inspired by the vision of Houston White, The Get Down is more than a coffee brand.
It’s part of a larger movement to build spaces, businesses, and opportunities that strengthen community from the inside out.
Every bag, every cup, and every conversation is rooted in Camdentown — a growing cultural district designed to inspire cultural and economic growth in communities everywhere.

THE COFFEE
Houston White’s love for coffee started at his Grandma Annie-Mae’s kitchen table — over simple cups of drip coffee, conversation, and southern hospitality.
But as he explored specialty coffee more deeply, he discovered something bigger: Some of the world’s most complex and celebrated coffees come from the Coffee Belt — regions largely cultivated by people of color.
Inspired by the richness and complexity of specialty coffee — often said to be even more nuanced than wine — Houston saw an opportunity to create greater representation within the coffee world while building a brand rooted in culture and community.
