For this years list, input would be appreciated in three areas:

Roasters that also sell greens so that you can compare your roast to theirs.
Direct importers that sell in smaller quantities
Any features of the specific sellers listed that you find noteworthy.

I've routinely bought Metropolis green line espresso blend which you can roast and compare to their red line. Not sure if this is the kind of thing you are looking for?

Great List. SweetMaria's is now my go to source.
Features SweetMaria's offer that other green coffee providers can't even list are:
#1 Arrival Date
#2 Cupping Scores
#3 Best roasting degree. I like this as what type of beans to select.

I've purchased some coffees from other vendors and can't even tell how old it is.
That's why I put Arrival date as number 1.
Thank you SweetMaria.

Great list!

Here's a short list for HB home roasters from down under. The list is pretty limited so if you have more to add (especially specialty-grade green coffee for home roasters) please do!

I've used most of the suppliers below and can vouch for most of them. The list is arranged alphabetically and my comment is added after the # tag.

Australia
Bean Green : https://beangreen.com.au/
Coffee Snobs: https://coffeesnobs.com.au/
Green Bean Roasters https://greenbeanroasters.com.au/ #have not used this supplier but the offering seems reasonable.
International Coffee Traders: http://www.ict.coffee/ #there is no online shop so you'd have to email to order.
Mountain Top Estate : http://www.mountaintopcoffee.com.au/green-bean-1kg/ #limited offering but good value considering it's Australian grown coffee (direct from farm?). Taste profile is pretty solid, reminds me of a good quality Ethiopian coffee (roasted medium/light).

Added Klatch and Paradise to the list of roasters that sell their greens as well.

Anyone know of others?

For Europe you also have. https://www.quijote-kaffee.de/shop/rohkaffee/
https://www.coffeecompass.co.uk/collect ... -bean-zone

I'm sure there are more but unfortunately in Europe we don't have all the accessibility and selection "yet" for the small roasters like the US. But this hole in the market over here also means good opportunity for someone in the near future to start something like coffeeshrub or CrownRoyal for the Micro Roasters and home Roasters.
