Why buy Organic?

The question has come up; more than once so we thought this entry would be about Organic Coffee. The basics are good responsible coffee should be ORGANIC, FAIRLY TRADED, and SHADE GROWN and BIRD FRIENDLY . When you buy Organic Coffee you are supporting farmers who are committed to maintaining the long-term health of our environment,
supporting family farms and strong communities, and helping preserve biodiversity. Of course Organic also means that the coffee is grown and processed without the use of harsh chemicals, fertilizers, or toxic pesticides.
You are in luck with the coffee we serve at Caffe Fratelli. Our K&F Bella Selva brand is Organic, Fairly Traded, and Shade Grown. The proceeds of our whole bean also give back to the Smithsonian Migratory Bird Foundation.

Ok, enough about educating your mind, now we'd like to tempt your senses. We're thinking Fall so this week we're featuring Almond Butter Bars from De Roover Bakery. They are nutty, buttery yumminess with a shortcake crust. We will also have fabulous chocolate chip cookies, and gooey mixed berry oat bars. Come by and try something with your usual cup of coffee.

Until Sunday then, Ciao!
