Fair trade coffee is purchased directly from the growers for a higher price than standard coffee. Fair trade coffee is one of many fair trade certified products available around the world. Fair trade practices ensure healthier working conditions and greater economic benefit for producers. Coffee farmers producing fair trade certified coffee are required to be part of a co-op with other local growers. The co-ops determine how the premiums from fair trade coffee will be spent, and growers are guaranteed a minimum price for the coffee, and if market prices exceed the minimum, they receive a per pound premium.

We’ve Bean Grean Too:We’ve Bean Grean Too:

  • By using only bulk coffee, we’ve eliminated individual packaging
  • All coffee grounds are removed and composted, either through HRM or in our own garden
  • With our system, the use of individual sugar packets is discouraged
  • We encourage the use of ceramic or reusable mugs in place of disposable paper cups
  • Good coffee at the workplace eliminates the need for coffee runs - eliminating idling at the drive-through and commute times
