CONSCIOUS COFFEE SOURCING

SOURCING FROM WOMEN FARMERS

Women make up 70% of the coffee growing workforce, yet make 40% less revenue. Our goal is to source 50% of our coffees from women-owned farms, and do our part to bridge this gap.

FAIR & TRANSPARENT FARMER PRICES

We pay 3x-5x the Fair Trade price, with a radical two-way transparency through our Farmer Feedback program, where we share data back with our farm partners.

FOR COFFEE LOVERS WHO WANT TO KNOW MORE

Ever seen tasting notes on coffee bags and thought: Sure, I taste kumquat in this coffee. Join our no-experience-needed coffee tastings! No pretense so snobbery here :)

“It was super informative! very accessible—I don’t know a ton about coffee and had never done a tasting before, and James explained everything so well and even said if we couldn’t pick out particular notes that there’s nothing wrong with us specialty coffee can be snobby at times and Driftaway seems wonderfully the opposite!” - @heyitslizb
