THE SAFFRON DIFFERENCE
ONE
ENVIRONMENTALLY
SUSTAINABLE
as coffee trees grow under existing forest canopy or can regenerate fallow ground.
TWO
LESS LABOUR
INTENSIVE
meaning children are less likely needed to work the
family farm.
THREE
HIGHER CASH
RETURNS
compared to other crop
alternatives like upland rice,
soy and corn.
But coffee farming only works if remote hill tribe farmers have a market for the crop and that’s also what we provide!
Furthermore, Saffron Coffee’s direct engagement model ensures farmers are not only given coffee sprouts, training and ongoing plot assistance,we also guarantee the purchase of their coffee cherries every year at above market value.
This provides greater stability and certainty for the coffee farmers.
OUR GOAL IS TO HELP FARMERS GROW THEMSELVES OUT OF POVERTY AND WE NEED YOUR HELP!
THE SAFFRON COMMITMENT
Saffron Coffee is committed to spending USD 30,000 in 2018 to provide 10,000 new trees along with the necessary infrastructure to nursery sprouts, deliver seedlings to remote areas and train farmers.
With your help we can add 20,000 more trees!
By giving $1 USD PER TREE, you can take advantage of our infrastructure and create your own environmental and humanitarian legacy. If well maintained, coffee trees can produce for up to 100 years! The positive impact from the tree you buy will be felt for decades!
LEAVE A LEGACY IN LAOS
FROM NOW UNTIL 28 FEBRUARY 2018.
This is a “keep it all” style fundraiser. Our target is 20,000 additional trees but more than that would be good! Contribute what you wish, knowing that your trees are guaranteed to be delivered to a Lao hill-tribe farmer. You will be developing a family’s micro plot and will help secure their future.
Saffron Coffee already commits 95% OF ITS PROFITS to promoting coffee farming in northern Laos. Partner with us to help speed up the process in 2018. The more trees, the more coffee, the more income to the farmers.
We are already working to have your trees ready for delivery during planting season in June-July.
