Sustainable Sources / Living Wage
At Helix Coffee Co., our commitment to sustainability is at the heart of every bean we source and every cup we roast. We believe that exceptional coffee can and should create a positive impact throughout the supply chain, from the dedicated farmers who cultivate the cherries to the coffee enthusiasts who enjoy the final brew. A cornerstone of this commitment is our Farmer Impact Fund, a dedicated initiative designed to directly support the talented producers and their communities at origin. This fund allows us to go beyond fair prices, investing in projects and initiatives that empower farmers, enhance their livelihoods, and promote environmentally responsible agricultural practices.
Our sustainable sourcing philosophy guides us to seek out not only the highest quality coffees but also partners who share our values. We are incredibly proud of the relationships we've cultivated, exemplified by our current offerings from three remarkable sources. From Ethiopia, we bring you the exquisite Limmu Kossa, known for its unique and vibrant flavor profiles. Our partnership here allows us to contribute to the rich coffee heritage of the region while supporting the specific needs of the community producing this exceptional coffee.
In Brazil, we work with Parceiros do Cafe. This collaboration allows us to showcase the innovation and dedication of Brazilian coffee farmers who are committed to quality and sustainable land management. Through our Farmer Impact Fund and direct engagement, we aim to support their efforts in producing outstanding coffee consistently. Furthermore, from Guatemala, we are honored to source Café con Manos de Mujer. This coffee is particularly special as it often represents and supports the crucial work of women coffee producers. By choosing this coffee, Helix Coffee Co. actively contributes to empowering women in coffee-growing communities, fostering gender equity and recognizing their invaluable contribution to the industry. Through these focused partnerships and our Farmer Impact Fund, Helix Coffee Co. strives to create a more equitable, transparent, and sustainable coffee future for all.
