When Coffee Meets Water: A Journey to Rwanda

In rural Rwanda, where roughly one in four people lack access to a safe water source, many communities rely on rivers and streams to drink, wash, clean, farm, and play. Conventional coffee farming methods and processing can poison water used by people downstream. Responsible coffee production, as demonstrated by this Rainforest Alliance Certified coffee cooperative, leads to cleaner water and healthier rivers. Good news for communities downstream!
