In the past months, wildfires have ravaged both Northern and Southern California. In Northern California alone, one insurer has already received an estimated $1.2 billion in claims. We’ve covered California fire relief efforts over on Sprudge Wine, and now coffee is getting in the action. Ukiah’s Black Oak Coffee Roasters and Healdsburg’s Olam Specialty Coffee importers have created Seedling: A Blend For Recovery, with 100% of the profits going to the victims of the North Bay fires.
Seedling features a mix of a natural processed Ethiopia Guji from Kayon Mountain and a Guatemela from Palo Blanco in Huehuetenango, both of which were donated to Black Oak by Olam. From Black Oak’s press release:
The blend is available for purchase for $14 through Black Oak’s web store. More information about Seedling: A Blend For Recovery can be found on Black Oak’s blog. If you’re still trying to decide on a gift for this holiday season, consider giving Seedling. Blends are always crowd pleasers, $14 is a more than reasonable price, and it’s for a good cause. It’s a win-win-win.
