Why buy "Bird-Friendly"
Juan Ana Cafe...
Because
Shade Grown coffee
creates a big incentive to grow & maintain forest trees in South
America, read on....
You get great coffee at
farmer price, forest and tree land is preserved, farmers get paid a fair
price and there is a huge incentive to keep growing coffee under forest
canopies or shade trees,
which in turn benefits migratory birds and other
animals.
Shade Coffee is not a brand
name but a method of growing coffee that is far superior in
quality than sun grown coffee. Sun grown coffee promotes
deforestation in Latin America and the Caribbean. Shade grown coffee
consists of Arabica beans which takes longer for beans to ripen for
harvest, the coffee is rich, and smoother tasting. Imagine the best
cup of coffee you ever had, it was likely Shade Grown coffee, it is grown
without fertilizers, chemicals, or pesticides.
Shade Coffee is grown under
tree shade (canopies) without cutting down vast areas of forest and
maintains migratory bird patterns between North and South America. Arabica
coffee beans grow better and richer in the shade.
Mayan Indian Farmers get paid
the full $5 a Pound (it is actually 17 ounces), nobody else makes money,
including us. It is managed through a New Ulm Minnesota sponsored
mission and distributed & mailed by 2 volunteers.
Mayan farmers and other
farmers profit is 2-3 times that of other coffee bean farming crops
improving their standard of living so there
is a huge incentive to keep growing Shade Coffee, also keeping the forest and
wildlife healthy.
Shade grown coffee is organic
and grown in natural fertile soil.
Migratory birds win, farmers
win, trees and forest land wins, the ecology wins, and you win
with great tasting Shade Grown Coffee at a very reasonable price. We do
not profit in any way. Order below.
