Why organic beans?
Conventional coffee farming yields one of the most chemically treated crops in the world. Conventional farming allows for the use of pesticides, fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides - all of which have been linked to cancer, spontaneous abortion, chromosome breakage, nervous system disorders, cardiovascular diseases, peripheral nervous system disorders, autism, congenital abnormalities, kidney disease, and more. 

There are no synthetic fertilizers used with organic coffee farming. This method includes the use of coffee pulp, chicken manure, organic fertilizers and compost to help feed and nourish the plants.  This approach yields a crop of beans that are 'clean' and full of healthful antioxidants – rich in potassium and magnesium that end up in organic coffee.

Organic coffee plants are often grown in their native shady environment and/or forests. These environments are more difficult to harvest and do require a higher level of care; ultimately yielding higher quality coffee plants and beans. The natural ecosystems with organic coffee farming stay intact, and the ground is replenished naturally. The entire ecosystem in and around the plants are kept more pure since the habitats are not destroyed.
 
When the topography is not cleared or altered to grow the plants, there is very little to no runoff or soil erosion. This also allows for the naturally preserved land to withstand storms and other radical climate or weather systems more easily since the land is in its pure and original state. 

We choose to roast beans that are ethically sourced from organic farms. They are simply much closer to the pure state in which God created them, and therefore healthier for our customers.
