SUSTAINABLE COFFEE

SUPPORTING LOCAL & GLOBAL COMMUNITIES

Java Love is committed to supporting local and global communities – only sourcing coffee beans produced with respect for the environment and farmers.

Our coffees are either organic and/or sustainably farmed, fair trade and/or rainforest alliance certified. This ensures the highest standards and practices; meaning the people and the land are treated with respect, integrity, and the best practices.

Certifications

fair trade seal


Fair Trade Certified 
Works to build an economy that supports a better life for farming families through market access, sustainable and equitable trade relationships, advocacy and consumer awareness. Coffee purchased from certified cooperatives must be at or above the fair trade minimum price set by Fair Trade International.

rainforest alliance logo


Rainforest Alliance 
The rainforest alliance seal means that a farm has been audited to meet sustainability standards relating to environmental, social, and economic factors. To become certified, producers must meet criteria set by the Sustainable Agriculture Network (SAN). SAN standards are built on principles of sustainable farming, biodiversity conservation, improved livelihoods and human well-being, natural resource conservation, and effective planning and farm management systems.
