BETTER BEANS
100% ORGANIC, FAIR TRADE, SHADE GROWN COFFEE
Higher Ground’s East Timor coffee offers a sweet, full-bodied cup with a mild acidity and wonderful cinnamon-like overtones. All of Higher Ground’s coffees are Fair Trade, organic, and shade grown. Fair Trade certification enables the farmers who grow our coffees to keep their family owned farms and benefit from economic and educational programs, while growing a great organic crop. Higher Ground coffees are also grown in the shade of the forest canopy—preserving ancient forests and natural habitat for innumerable species of plants and animals.
FAIRER MEANS
With the added income from Fair trade sales, the Café Timor Coop has been able to:
- Establish a skills development program that provides members with training in bookkeeping, management, English, and computer skills
- Create a healthcare program with nine health clinics and several mobile health clinics—providing free healthcare to all Coop members
“I know that part of the Fair Trade income that my colleagues and I generate through our sales of fresh, organic Arabic cherries is used to buy medicine for the Cooperative Dafe Timor’s primary healthcare clinics. For that I am grateful, as the clinic’s staff saved my wife’s life after she suffered complications from the recent birth of my child.”
