Fair
Trade Coffee

Why choose Fair Trade Certified products?
A fair price
The Fair Trade Certified label guarantees that farmers and workers received
a fair price for their product. The Fair Trade price means that farmers
can feed their families and that their children can go to school instead
of working in the fields.
Quality products
By receiving a fair price, Fair Trade producers can avoid cost-cutting
practices that sacrifice quality. The Fair Trade producers' traditional
artesanal farming methods result in exceptional products.
Care for the environment
Most Fair Trade Certified coffee, tea and chocolate in the US is certified
organic and shade grown. This means that the products you buy maintain
biodiversity, provide shelter for migratory birds and help reduce global
warming.
Community impact
Empowered by the economic stability provided by Fair Trade, members
of the COSURCA coffee cooperative in Colombia successfully prevented
the cultivation of more than 1,600 acres of coca and poppy, used for
the production of illicit drugs. In Papua New Guinea, the AGOGA cooperative,
is investing in a medical team to meet the healthcare needs of its isolated
rural community. In the highlands of Guatemala, indigenous Tzutuhil
Mayans in the La Voz cooperative are sending local kids to college for
the first time. Near Lake Titicaca, in Peru, the CECOVASA cooperative
is assisting members from Quechua and Aymara indigenous groups in raising
coffee quality and transitioning to certified organic production.
