Why buy Shade Grown Direct-Trade coffee?
• It’s grown in the shade of a forest canopy, eliminating the need for harmful clear-cuts. • It uses only organic fertilizers • Allows the farmers to perform all value-added processes such as roasting, packaging, and exporting. • Gives farmers who grow the coffee approximately 600-900% more for their raw coffee beans than traditional fair-trade practices. By supporting Sol Colibri, you know you are investing directly in their local economy way more efficiently by leaving more profit in the hands of the Farmers, and that by doing this you are giving the opportunity for a new way of doing social economic and ecological types of businesses. Thus, while making of the Fair Trade Movement an ever transforming path to Economic Justice. We look forward to pooling our ECVIU profits (after expenses) into a project in Costa Rica.
