Quality Training

2020 Seeds Fund Recipient

2020 Seeds Fund Recipient

This Seeds grant will support training for 36 farmers in Nakayombo village of Makaali region on Mount Elgon in Uganda. The farmers will learn about drying infrastructure and processing with our partner, Mountain Harvest, to receive higher prices for their coffee through quality production. Mountain Harvest will use insights learned from this project to develop quality improvement protocols to be shared with similar communities of coffee producers all around Mount Elgon.

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.
