Drinks
Coffee
Cafe Campesino is the first and only fair trade organic coffee roaster in the state of Georgia. Their business model is based on the principles of honesty, transparency, and consumer responsibility. They have relationships witht he individual co-ops of coffee growers throughout the world, allowing for a decreased cost (cutting out the middle man) and more of the money going into the pockets of the farmers.
The Green Bean Coffee Cart brought Counter Culture Coffee to all of Emory's coffee shops in 2008. This was our first coffee supplier and their support, donations, and maintenance assistance allowed the Cart to thrive in its fledgling years. We unfortunately no longer sell Counter Culture Coffee due to the campus-wide switch to Cafe Campesino.
