What's in your Cup?

Many NON-Organic Coffees contain Endosulfan which is an insecticide used against the coffee cherry bore. Once on the soil it may take years to break down.

Studies show that Endosulfan affects the central nervous system and prevents it from working properly. Hyperactivity, nausea, dizziness, headache, or convulsions have been observed in adults exposed to high doses. Severe poisoning may result in death.

Make sure your coffee is USDA and OCIA 100% Organic Certified. Grown without the use of pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers, and other chemicals the farmers, community, and enviroment stays protected. Through this you promote sustainable agriculture for future generations. A lot of companies now offer fair trade, organic coffee. One in particular, Boresha Coffee, donates a portion of all sales to the Invisible Children charity that helps the displaced children of Northern Uganda.
