Merriweather Coffee + Kitchen in New York City has been awarded a BLOOM grant to purchase a pair of Birkenstock Profi Birki 2.0 Clogs for each of their 16 team members. These shoes are both supportive and environmentally sustainable. Supportive footwear helps alleviate the strain of standing through long work days and has a positive impact on the overall health of employees. Hospitality also takes a toll on footwear - most employees have to replace their shoes 2-3 times a year. By investing in quality footwear, Merriweather is cutting down on shoes that would otherwise end up in a landfill. 

Bloom Fund

Counter Culture Coffee collects $0.01 from every pound of coffee sold to fund our Bloom program. Annually, $1 per pound of our spring coffee blend, Perennial, goes to further increase our contribution. Bloom provides grants to support sustainability initiatives at Counter Culture Coffee partner cafes. Rooted in the belief that everyone’s path toward sustainability looks a little different, this program supports projects of all shapes and sizes our partners identify as impactful.
