Happy Bird-day to You!

The theme of this year's International Migratory Bird Day — The Boreal Forest: Bird Nursery of the North — is especially important to all of us at COFFEE FOR THE BIRDS.

We're also proud that our Rainforest Alliance Certified™ BOREAL BLEND™ is being featured on the International Migratory Bird Day website and at various IMBD events around the country. With a portion of the proceeds directly benefitting the work of the Boreal Songbird Initiative, shade-grown BOREAL BLEND™ is the only coffee to ensure conservation at both ends of bird's migration route! (Editor's note: It's a wonderfully rich and smooth blend of Latin American coffees, to boot!)

International Migratory Bird Day is Saturday, May 13th, but can be celebrated any time of the year. Numerous events and festivals will be held throughout the month of May and beyond. For more information about IMBD, and to find an event or celebration in your area, please visit www.birdday.org

Each month, we'll be publishing articles and features on our favorite topics—coffee and birds—to this section of our website.
