North Central College, Sustainably

Support student enterprise and sustainable commerce at the same time: buy NCC’s Best Conscious Bean Coffee, brought to you by the College’s chapter of Students In Free Enterprise (SIFE).

Farmers who follow fair trade practices grow Conscious Bean in San Lucas Toliman in the Highlands of Guatemala, and you can get your hands on these “Fine and Fair” beans online or on-campus in the Rolland Center Boilerhouse Café.

(Your author is drinking a cup of Conscious Bean as he writes.)

Our SIFE chapter hasn’t limited itself to coffee, either: get a hold of them to ask about their Fair Trade chocolate bars, woven table linens produced by Burkina Faso women widowed by AIDS, and sweat-free t-shirts.
