ANNOUNCING AUDUBON COFFEE - WITH A SPECIAL OFFER FOR CHAPTERS

Wouldn't it be great if you could raise funds for your chapter’s conservation efforts and serve delicious, bird-friendly, gourmet coffee at your meetings? You can with Audubon Coffee - at a discount too!

Audubon Licensing is proud to offer Audubon Premium Shade-grown Organic Coffee. Produced by the Rogers Family Company Coffee Roasters, this coffee is certified "Eco-OK" by the Rainforest Alliance and as 100% organic by the OCIA.

Audubon Coffee is made exclusively from carefully selected Arabica beans, cultivated by traditional farmers in the most renowned coffee regions of the world. These exceptional farmers use traditional production techniques - without pesticides or chemical fertilizers - in order to grow their beans as nature intended - under a lush canopy of tropical trees, home to hundreds of bird species such as migratory warblers and resident rainforest wildlife.

But Audubon Coffee is also grown with fair treatment and conditions for farm workers - in fact, the Rogers Family Company pays the farmers a higher price per pound than world market prices or even Fair Trade. Even more impressive, the company runs a Community Aid program that helps break the cycle of poverty and improve living conditions in their partner coffee communities. For more information on the Community Aid program, visit the Rogers Family Company Website http://www.rogersfamilyco.com.

Audubon Coffee is fresh-roasted and vacuum packed, and comes in four rich flavors, both whole-bean and ground, as well as in 12 ounce and 2 pound value size bags.
