Meet The Owner
CHANCE EBERSOLD
Soon after moving to Virginia from his native Maine, Chance dove head first into the coffee industry—starting with Mudhouse Coffee Roasters out of Charlottesville. 20 years later, after graduating school and various food service careers, he felt it was time to make his own space in Harrisonburg.
Chance recognized the potential in a little corner of the Ice House while searching for a new location for The Yellow Button—owned by his wife, Miranda.
Building Black Sheep Coffee was a labor of love—even using reclaimed wood from tables he built for his wedding reception. He envisioned a space with an open floor plan and low counters, to encourage interaction with guests. Isn't that what a coffee house is about?
