Birds & Beans® Coffee Roasters
Bird Friendly Shade Grown, Organic, Fair Trade
We are celebrating 10 years of organic certification! We passed our first organic audit under the (then) new Canada Organic Regime in September 2009.
We thought it was a good time for a packaging refresh!
We have always offered our certified organic, bird friendly coffees in biodegradable kraft packages with biodegradable liners. Now, we have found a new locally printed bag made with compostable films and inks that looks and feels fantastic!
Here is a teaser for what is to come.
