Presbyterian Coffee Project

The Presbyterian Coffee Project links congregations with small farmers through fair trade in partnership with Equal Exchange.  We will be selling Equal Exchange coffee and tea as a ministry to small farmers in Latin America, Asia and Africa by cutting out the middlemen who offer the lowest possible price.  Through Equal Exchange the farmer cooperatives are paid directly.   If you would like to purchase coffee or tea, see the display in the church office for details.
