Finding certified products is easy and it doesn’t have to be expensive. Here’s a list of the most popular fair trade certified k-cups and organic k-cups on the market.
FAIR TRADE K-CUPS
Buying Fair Trade is an easy way to support the hard-working people who grow and make the products that we love. With Fair Trade standards, small farmers receive a fair price that allows them to compete in the market, to support their families and to invest in social projects in their communities.

By choosing fair trade k-cups, you help make a difference to the lives of coffee farmers and their families around the world. No matter if it’s coffee, cocoa, chocolate, wine or clothes, simply search for products with the Fair Trade Certified label.
To make it really easy for you, I’ve compiled a list of the best tasting fair trade certified k-cups:
dark roast, bold & strong
Death Wish Coffee
Green Mountain Sumatran Reserve
Laughing Man Colombia Hulia, recyclable k-cups
medium roast, balanced

Laughing Man Hugh’s Blend, recyclable k-cups
flavored
Island Coconut, seasonal
Wild Mountain Blueberry
ORGANIC K-CUPS
While the fair trade is much more about shopping ethical and global economy, organic is about health. If you’re worried about what type of foods & drinks you consume and how is your coffee grown, then look for the USDA Organic label.
When you see this label, it means that your coffee has been produced through approved methods, practices that foster cycling of resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity. Synthetic fertilizers, sewage sludge, irradiation, and genetic engineering may not be used in the production of organic products. To learn more about organic standards and certification head here.
And, here’s a list of the most popular organic k-cups:

Death Wish Coffee
Green Mountain Sumatran Reserve
AmazonFresh Sumatra

Newman’s Own Special Blend
San Francisco Bay Rainforest Blend
I hope this helps! And, remember – it’s okay if you’re not only buying certified or sustainable products all the time. It about small changes and doing what you can, when you can.

Yes, I recently bought a Nantucket fair trade at the Bed Bath & Beyond. But you have to make sure you catch it when they have it. They ran out of certain brands and I complained and I hope they heard me

Hi Jennifer, they are not all fair trade. Sumatran reserve and Newman’s Own Special Blend k-cups are organic and fair trade certified.

Hi, that was really helpful and great, for one I am a strong believer of organic products due to their benefits which you have mentioned above. But i support you in looking for the ‘TRADE FAIR CERTIFIED” logo since most of these farmers depend on these products we like enjoying so much as a source of livelihood. What would happen if they decided to stop farming coffee? we wouldn’t have something to enjoy, right? So it’s good to support them and at the same time check your health.
Thanks
