2021 Seeds Fund Recipient
This Seeds grant assisted the La Voz Cooperative’s construction, maintenance, and administration of a centralized nursery. By growing over 20,000 coffee seedlings and an additional 6,000 seedlings for various shade tree species, the cooperative supported over 164 producers in renovating their farms. Through such renovation, they seek to strengthen the level of resilience to the effects of climate change and maintain the quality of the coffee we’ve all come to expect for many years to come.
Seeds Program
Counter Culture Coffee collects $0.01 from every pound of coffee sold to fund our Seeds program. Annually, $1 per pound of our winter coffee blend, Iridescent, goes to further increase our contribution. Seeds offers financial grants to producers and producer organizations we work with to implement sustainability projects they identify as beneficial. To date, we’ve allocated over $280,000 to Seeds projects.
