Impact at Bellwether.

Empower Everyone to Sustainably Source and Roast Incredible Coffee.

The Coffee Industry is Not Sustainable.

The coffee industry creates significant carbon emissions, disproportionately affecting farmers through climate change. We must advocate for the widespread adoption of electric and distributed roasting to reduce our carbon footprint.

Current coffee prices don't provide a living income to most of the world’s farmers, causing instability and enduring poverty. We must pay coffee farmers equitable prices that support a living income, and invest in farm communities where we source coffee.
