What Are Rainforest Alliance Certified Coffee Beans?

The Rainforest Alliance works directly with coffee farms to ensure their practices are environmentally and socially responsible. Farms that meet their rigorous sustainability standards earn the Rainforest Alliance Certified™ seal, a symbol of ethical sourcing for coffee beans.

What This Means for Your Coffee:

  • Grown Responsibly. These coffee beans are cultivated in ways that protect the environment and the communities that grow them.
  • Certified for Quality. Only farms that meet comprehensive standards for sustainability can display the Rainforest Alliance Certified™ seal.
  • Support for Farmers. By choosing certified coffee, you’re helping smallholder farmers receive technical assistance, better access to markets, and higher prices for their crops.

How to Identify Rainforest Alliance Certified Coffee

Look for the Rainforest Alliance Certified™ seal. This is a small green frog logo that will be displayed on the packaging of coffee that has been certified by the Rainforest Alliance. If you see this logo, you can be confident that the coffee was grown according to their sustainability standards. Additionally, you search the Rainforest Alliance's online database.

Rainforest Alliance Certified™ Coffee

The Rainforest Alliance is an international nonprofit organization that works to conserve biodiversity and promote the rights and well-being of workers, their families and communities.

These standards conserve biodiversity, ensure that soils, waterways and wildlife habitat is protected and that farm workers enjoy decent housing, access to medical care and schools for their children. Farms must commit to a process of continuous improvement and are audited each year in order to maintain their certification. By shopping for products bearing the Rainforest Alliance Certified™ seal, you are supporting a healthy environment and helping to improve the quality of life for farm families.
