Is it certified organic or fair trade?Updated 5 days ago
Yes—our Nicaraguan co-ops are both Certified Organic and Fair Trade, but we don’t stop there. We go beyond certification to focus on deep, soil-up transformation.
That means:
- No chemical fertilizers or pesticides—ever
- Compost-based fertility and living microbial soil
- Shade-grown under native trees to protect biodiversity and store carbon
- Direct partnerships with smallholder farmers to ensure fair pay and long-term farm health
Certifications are just the starting point—what matters most is how the coffee is grown, who it supports, and the future it builds!
