Last year, we piloted a coffee share as an extra option. We’ve worked out some kinks and we are very pleased to partner with Oslo Coffee this year. Oslo roasts their own ecologically and socially sustainable beans (organic and fair-trade), including heirloom and seasonally available varieties. Members will be able to sign on to Oslo’s website and order weekly at discounted prices. Beans will arrive in glass mason jars (on a modest deposit). A representative will be offering a coffee tasting on the first CSA pick-up; please be sure to sign-up then if you are interested!
Per lb prices will vary between $7.50 and 9.00. Full, half and 5lb orders will be available: get an additional 20% discount for each 5 lbs order.
Upcoming Oslo Fair-Trade roasts:
- Organic Nicaraguan Selva Negra Estate – Rain Forest Alliance
- Organic Mexican H/G Chiapas
- Organic New Guinea
- Organic Peru CEPICAFE
- Organic Sumatra Gayo
Hello, and thank you for considering Oslo Coffee Roasters for your CSA 2010 coffee share program. Our premium coffee beans come from farmers who utilize ecologically and socially sustainable practices, helping to support a healthy ecosystem and providing a fair living for their workers. These are the only farms that can produce the high quality coffees we use. The care that goes into growing, shipping and finally roasting these coffees is reflected in the flavor of the finished product. Oslo offers a weekly rotating selection of what we like to call ʻcurrentʼ or ʻin-seasonʼ varietals; coffees that have been only recently harvested and shipped to us here in NYC. As part of the CSA coffee share program, we would offer these same organic, fair-trade coffees to members at a wholesale discount.
