Local coffee shops vs. the largest worldwide chain

When deciding between coffee shops, here are a few things to keep in mind. Instead of focusing on whats trendy, we should be focusing on whats better for the world.

Below I am attaching an article that I felt should be shared on the difference between local coffee shops like us and the largest worldwide chain.

At Saratoga Coffee Traders, we focus on what is better for the people. This is why we use all organic, fair-trade, shade grown coffee AND tea. We support local farms by purchasing our milk from Battenkill Creamery. Not only that, we also carry Soy and Almond milk free of charge because we know it is better for the people and people love it!

Let us know what you think about this article and the subject in general. Is there anything we can do to make our coffee shop more eco friendly?
