Give Fair-Trade and Environmentally Responsible Coffee

Fair-traded, environmentally responsible coffee is coffee that comes from a supplier who pays a fair price to farmers who take the extra time and make the extra effort to produce not only an exceptional product but to produce it in an environmentally responsible way. Dolphin Blue recommends the online supplier Fair Coffee Company.

Fair Trade, Organic, Shade-Grown Coffee is different in both taste and quality:

• Fair Trade producers can avoid cost-cutting practices that sacrifice quality.
• Hand-picking of coffee beans allows unripened beans to be left to ripen.
• Roasting is done by professional roasters.
• 100% satisfaction is guaranteed by Fair Coffee Company.

Unlike coffee-farming on sun plantations (clear-cut to maximize area for growing conventional coffee), traditional artisanal farming practices are inherently sustainable. Shade-growing maintains biodiversity by providing shelter to migratory birds, and avoids the global warming caused by clear-cutting to make way for conventional coffee growing.

With every cup of fair-trade coffee you drink you support the values that brought it to you. You support the right of children to be educated, the right of families to not be displaced, the right of people to live with the environment, the right of consumers and workers to not be exposed to harmful chemicals, and the right of  consumers to live by their ethics.
