Why We Do Organic
Good for YOU! Our coffee is Certified Organic, which means that the
organic integrity of every bean we roast is guaranteed from the tree to the
cup. In order to obtain certified
organic status, Desert sun Coffee Roasters must carefully document each step in
the supply chain: from growth, to harvest, to our facility in Durango, Colorado,
and ultimately to you. Our Certified
Organic coffee provides the health benefits of a chemical free lifestyle for
you. Organic is about more than the healthiness
and quality of our products. It is
making informed choices about the products you buy and feeling good in knowing
that you are helping others.
Good for Farmers For farmers, organic practices promote health for the land,
for farmers and their families, and for future farming generations. It promises
quality of life, a clean environment and a nutrient-rich land, free of toxic
fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides. To
us long lasting coffee means choosing organic beans that are grown without harmful
chemicals and in ways that help the soil and water for generations.
Good for the Earth Organic coffee is grown and harvested without the use of
chemical pesticides and fertilizers, generally on small farms under lush jungle
canopies. This natural habitat is home
to a diverse population of birds that act as a natural defense against bugs,
and pests, which can ruin a coffee crop. Organic farming practices promote respect for the earth and its many
precious eco-systems.

the earth and the environment. Organic
promotes sustainable practices and helps to maintain natural ecosystems. It links farmers, roasters and consumers in
sustainable relationships.
