PGO Sells Dean's Beans Coffee - Orders Due Oct. 6

Crocker Farm PGO has once again teamed up with Dean's Beans to offer special Crocker Farm blends of Dean’s delicious organic, kosher, Fair Trade coffee.  Each pound purchased raises money for PGO-supported programs at Crocker Farm (things like student field trips to local museums, the One World Festival, Crocker Press and more)! Dean’s Beans is a progressive local business that assists grassroots development projects in coffee-growing villages.

Products Available:
All coffee can be purchased whole-beans or all-purpose ground.

Crocker Java Coffee: $9.00/lb
A strong and exceptionally smooth cup of coffee from Nicaragua. Medium body and slightly dry.

Crocker Java Swiss-water Processed Decaf Coffee: $10.00/lb 
A full-bodied, but flavorful and aromatic Peruvian coffee. The best tasting decaf in the world!

Dark Chocolate Java Drops: $8.50/lb 
Vienna-roasted, shade grown Guatemalan and Mexican coffee beans, sensuously surrounded by pure dark chocolate. A mouthful of 100% organic pleasure. Half of the profits are returned to the indigenous cooperative in Costa Rica that provides the cocoa butter.

Hot Cocoa: $6.00/ 3/4 lb
Organic, creamy, chocolatety goodness in a mug. Half of the profits are returned to the indigenous cooperative in Costa Rica that provides the cocoa.

How it Works: 
1. Order forms are always available for download on the PGO's blog, or from the PGO mailbox in the Main Office. Fill in an order form and send it, along with check made out to “Crocker Farm PGO,” to school with your child.

2. Orders will be placed the first Wednesday of each month. Coffee will be roasted and shipped fresh in one-pound Kraft bags of whole or ground beans; we’ll send it home to you via your child’s backpack the second Wednesday of the month. (You may opt to pick your coffee up if you prefer; see order form.)

3. Order by the month, or for a few months at a time (see order form). Buy for yourself, for friends and relations, for holiday gifts and for every day. These products make fantastic gifts!
