If we had to describe Daterra in only one phrase, it would definitely be: climate positive farm, carbon negative coffee; and today, we are revealing the meaning behind it. In broad strokes, being carbon negative means we are able to sequester more carbon from the atmosphere than we emit. But… How do we do it? […]
The impacts of climate change on coffee production are undeniable. Research indicates that the areas suitable for growing coffee will be reduced by up to 50% by 2050. In Brazil, the drier and hotter climate, caused not only by climate change but also by the deforestation of the Amazon and the Cerrado Region, is already […]
On December 16th, Fundação Educar volunteers delivered gifts to children and teenagers from the There’s Hope Project – an initiative that helps vulnerable people in Campinas, São Paulo.

Now we’re expanding our contribution to actively mitigate climate changes that jeopardize the very existence of coffee. According […]
Thinking about the world’s environmental future has become a concern, sometimes even an absolute alarm. Here in Daterra, we see the topic as responsibility that we have as an agrobusiness. There have been decades of increasingly strident expert warnings and increasingly obvious signs of Earth’s climate change. Couple this with the realization that previous actions […]
Daterra just achieved world’s highest Sustainability recognition! We are the first farm in the world to receive “Level A” certification from Rainforest Alliance. Two years ago our farms received an award from Brazil’s most important agriculture news outlet as the most sustainable farm of Brazil. The award prompted us the thought: what to do next? Lots of new project were […]
From January 16 to 20, Daterra will host again 16 teens from the rural areas near our farms to spend a week with us learning everything about coffee! We’ll have two editions of The Bean Academy – one in January and another in July. Know more about the program here.
