Birds & Beans the
good coffee™ is the best choice for Birds:
Smithsonian Migratory Bird Center (SMBC) “Bird
Friendly”® coffee is not just any shade-grown
coffee. Over twelve years of research and field
inspections by the Smithsonian Migratory Bird Center
are behind the SMBC certification and this means
“Bird Friendly”® is the gold standard.
SMBC certified farms support great biodiversity,
they are organic and cultivated in large part by
families and Coops. Coffees sold with SMBC certification
must use only 100 percent certified beans, (other
shade grown coffee may have little as 30 percent
shade grown beans).
SMBC farms must meet stringent criteria for rich
and structurally complex habitat. Other shade grown
coffee may be from plantations with a single species
of shade tree, heavily pruned and not supporting
much more biodiversity than sun grown plantations.
The science is very strong on this point; SMBC certification
is the best for birds. So coffee drinkers and bird
lovers who want to make the biggest difference buy
SMBC coffee. ”Be Certain. Buy Certified.”® |
