The road to your cup from small farmers to their farmer co-ops to equal exchange. We're working with co-ops of small farmers around the world to create a coffee chain that values the people and places that are part of it. Despite how simple this seems, it's not how things usually work in the coffee industry. Our farmer partners: This is a movement for big change. Join us! Small farmers have a seat at the table in a way they didn't two decades ago when we first started. But it's not over yet. All of us who care about the people behind our coffee must keep fighting for lasting change. "Consumers and farmers must continue to walk together. We are all in the same struggle for a life of peace." Diego Perez Lopez coffee farmer & member of Cirsa Co-op, Chiapas, Mexico. Fairness to farmers. A closer connection. This was the vision held by the three founders of Equal Exchange - Rink, Jonathan, and Michael - as they launched in Boston, in 1986. They turned to Nicaraguan coffee to demonstrate solidarity with the fledgling people's movement and challenge U.S. trade policies. A shared vision. Founded in 1946, ten thousand villages is one of the oldest & largest nonprofit fair trade organizations in the world. "Fair trade provides hope. Hope that the cycle of poverty will be broken so that artisans, farmers and their children will have a future filled with new possibilities". Craig R. Schloneger, CEO ten thousand villages. Medium roast. Full city roast. Brew it. Drink it. Love it. What's the secret to brewing? There isn't just one! We recommend. 1-2 tbsp of coffee for 6 oz. of water. Too strong? Too light? Make adjustments so it comes out just the way you like it. For more brewing tips, go to: www.equalexchange.coop/brewing. Coffee that goes beyond delicious. "We work closely with our farmer partners, year after year, to better understand each other's needs. The result is a trusting relationship - and delicious coffee." Beth Ann Caspersen, quality control manager. Worker owned cooperative. We believe in the democratic process in transparency in education. "I am a trained coffee grower. I put my hands in the dirt to grow the plant, and it's really beautiful. Because of the love that I put into my coffee, my coffee gets a good price... Only by organizing can we make progress. That's why I became a co-op member". Alejandrina Salsa Altamirano, coffee farmer & member of Cocla co-op, La Convencion, Peru. Go co-op. Fair trade and social certified by IMO. We're Equal Exchange co-op. Since 1986, we've run our business democratically. One person, one vote. We each have a voice, with the ability - and the obligation to use it as we build a movement for a better food system. Spending time tackling supply chains and trade models might not thrill everyone, but it's our passion. We wake up thinking about this stuff every day. We own it! "Roasting great coffee is about using all of your senses and tools to bring out the unique, complex flavors and aromas found in each coffee. But it is also about respect; respecting where a coffee comes from, the journey it has taken, and where it is going - all this impacts how we roast. Because every coffee is different, our roasting team is constantly exploring how to best develop each and every roast." -Lan McMillan, roasting team leader. www.equalexchange.coop.
