Alto Mayo

How Your Disney Cup of Coffee Can Help Peruvian Communities

By Nicole Nalty

Are you a fan of Joffrey’s Coffee? Your morning cup of joe at Disney theme parks just got sweeter thanks to a brand-new eco-friendly blend. Grown in Peru as part of Disney and Conservation International’s Alto Mayo forest project, this new high-quality, organic press-pot coffee will be available in select restaurants this month and will make its way to favorite table-service restaurants later this spring.

Alto Mayo is a protected forest in Peru that spans 450,000 acres––that’s twice the size of New York City! Disney collaborated with Conservation International to train local farmers in Peru on sustainable farming methods, among other efforts to reduce deforestation. Because of this, there is less of a need to expand farming areas, which decreases deforestation (Plus, the coffee’s really good!).
