Cherry Hill Coffee will be rolling out a full compliment of fair trade organic (FTO) blends and varietals for our wholesale customers along with a new one pound retail line-up. Drop by our Kelowna roastery for the full selection or pick up a pound of our shiny red bags at your favourite organic grocer or neighbourhood cafe!
As environmental and social awareness increases and talk of sustainability fuels coffee shop discussions in the Okanagan and across Canada, one thing is certain; fair trade organic products are more than a fad. They are more than an alternative – they’re the new norm.
Our fair trade organic program helps enable sustainable development and empowerment of disadvantaged producers and workers in developing countries. Paying farmers and workers a fair price for their crop leads to a higher standard of living and more sustainable farming practices. Implementing better irrigation practices and protecting local habitats and ecosystems are good examples. These measures guarantee the quality of the coffee and long-term viability of the farms, while reducing their environmental footprint. Quite simply, it’s coffee with a conscience.Go green. Fill up with fair trade organic coffee.

We live on North Vancouver Island. Where can we get your coffee locally. We came across it for the first time in Trail this year and loved it. We are running out and need to re-stock our cupboard.
Thanks and keep up the good work.
