  • Farmers are paid a fair, stable price that covers the cost of production and supports a living wage

Yes. All of our Fair Trade Coffee Beans are 100% Arabica and carefully sourced for exceptional flavor, quality, and sustainability.

We offer Fair Trade beans in light, medium, and dark roasts, so you can choose the flavor profile that suits your taste while still making an ethical choice.

Fair Trade coffees are priced to reflect fair wages and sustainable practices, but we do our very best to keep them affordable by roasting in small batches and offering bulk savings without compromising quality.
