What is Fair Trade Coffee?
Fair trade certified coffee is made with beans that are grown using rigorous standards that support farmers and their communities and help protect the environment.
But first, coffee (farmers).
Many of us start our day with a cup of coffee. Okay, maybe a few!
We wouldn’t have our morning lattes without the hard work of more than 25 million smallholder farmers around the world. Over 800,000 of those small farmers are part of a fair trade cooperative.
The global pandemic is making a bad situation worse for many coffee farmers. Coffee prices, which were already well below the cost of production in most countries at 13-year lows, are expected to become more volatile as the pandemic unfolds.
When you choose to buy Fair Trade, you cast a vote for the ethical treatment of the farmers around the world who are responsible for our daily coffee fix.

Why we fair trade coffee:
Fair trade farmers establish long term, direct relationships with buyers and roasters
Fair trade partnerships are people-centered and provide development programs to support farm families and local communities
Coffee is shade-grown and Bird Friendly, which saves migrant and local bird species and conserves forest habitat
Fair trade coffee is certified organic; no toxic chemicals harm the land or enter the local water supply
