A Cup of Joe Brought to You By Family Farmers

Not too long ago, my nose led me to a very aromatic booth where coffee beans were being canned at our local Farmer's Market. There was a substantial line to find out more and I was intrigued by some shoppers who actually were handing back their coffee tins for more. Once I got to the front of the line, I learned all about Pachamama Cofee Co-Op, a very unique farmers-owned co-op that was incorporated in Davis, California in 2001 and spans from Ethiopia to Peru.

Choosing a French Roast Premium blend to try, the sales team also told me about their "refill" tin program, which reduces the number of tins wasted and encourages customers to bring back the specially designed steel can to preserve freshness.

Pachamama Coffee Co-op is very impressive on so many levels - the family farmers and their stories, the 100% organic farming practices, the unique coffee beans themselves, and their mission to provide customers with premium coffee in the most direct manner possible and, in doing so, improve the lives of small-scale farmers and their families.

This cooperative is democratically-controlled and owned by its members, producer-groups of representing small-scale coffee farmers around the world.

Pachamama's member-owners ship their finest, organic single-origin coffee to the USA from Ethiopia, Guatemala, Peru, Nicaragua and Mexico. Pachamama Coffee Co-op hand-roasts in small batches in California and ship direct to customers.
