2024 Seeds Fund Recipient
The Kazoza N'Ikawa Cooperative has been awarded a 2024 Seeds Grant to diversify its sources of organic fertilizer for coffee trees. The primary objective is to boost productivity while meeting the stringent requirements for organic certification. By expanding their fertilizer sources, the cooperative aims to enhance soil health and crop yields, aligning with sustainable farming practices and positioning themselves for certification that could open up new market opportunities and premium pricing for their coffee.
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 $450,000 to Seeds projects.
