If you have a local coffee roaster (we have 2 within an hour of us, in rural NH) you can usually buy green coffee from them. We started roasting coffee about a year ago as an experiment. It can be a lot of work, but it can also be satisfying.
btw, you CAN roast coffee in an old popcorn popper, we do it. We have a 2nd hand "Twirly Pop" that we got for $2 at a yard sale and a candy thermometer that we got new sits in it. This is a stovetop type.
Green coffee around here is roughly $5 a lb.
