Organic coffee

Many coffee producers measure the quality of their produce in terms of three main certifications: shade grown, organic and fair trade. Shade grown coffee is grown under a canopy of trees and promotes natural ecology. Fair trade advocates the payment of a higher price to producers in developing countries to promote sustainability. It promotes the export of coffee from developing countries to developed countries. Organic coffee, as we already know, is growing coffee without the use of artificial fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides.

There are many coffee producers who claim to adhere to these principles. Urth Caffe is one. To ensure compliance with its rigorous standards, the Urth Caffé is vertically integrated; controlling its purchasing, roasting, and distribution. They work directly with a limited number of sustainable coffee growers who produce the finest organically grown coffees available today. Elan Organic Coffee is another. They work with village coops and farms in over 20 countries.
