Projects

DRWakefield Projects

DRWakefield projects are grounded in local capacity building, economic and environmental development and sustainability. Each project is designed around the societal and ecological needs of the partner community and local environment. They aim to support coffee producers financially in the long term, whilst contributing to the health and well-being of people and nature. DRWakefield Projects are funded through a price premium we pay per kg on select coffees or a profit percentage of sales at origin. We also use events like our annual Full Circle to increase awareness and funding. The DRWay guides our projects, so whether it’s supporting community building in Costa Rica, knowledge sharing in Honduras, or reforestation in Sumatra, each stems from a shared space and contributes to a collective vision where coffee works for all.
