Sustainability

We’re committed to buying and serving the highest-quality, responsibly grown, ethically traded coffee to help create a better future for farmers. That is why all of the coffee we sell is certified organic. From the farmer’s field to our partner's production facilities, the coffee is produced, processed, and handled according to international organic stipulations. People who grow coffee are also very important in this process. The consumer deserves to know and the producer deserves to be known. Therefore, we have a direct relationship with farmers and we offer a fair price for their product.

Organic coffee is grown using methods and materials that have a lower impact on the environment. Organic farming practices help replenish and maintain soil health, reduce the use of toxic and persistent pesticides and fertilizers, and build biologically diverse agriculture. Organic coffee not only provides a healthier and less dangerous work environment for our producer partners and their families - it also tastes better! Without any harsh pesticides and fertilizers, the coffee is less astringent and much cleaner.

Just like coffee, our approach to cocoa buying is designed to ensure a long-term supply of high-quality, ethically sourced cocoa while contributing positively to the environment and to cocoa-farming communities.
