Portland, Oregon is known for many things, including its eco-consciousness and its love of coffee, including being the birthplace of Boyd’s Coffee.
Boyd’s Portland roots definitely factored into our eco-conscious perspective on life. And with Earth Day celebrated on April 22nd, it’s a month for us to reflect on what all we can do to protect our precious planet by bringing a sustainable, restorative, even regenerative mindset to how we live, how we play, and how we work.
If you care about minimizing waste but also love the convenience of your single serving pod coffee maker, it can feel like a no win situation: most of these pods are just plain wasteful and wind up adding to our landfills.
As you would expect for a company with Portland roots, we’ve got your eco-conscious convenience win-win. Our delicious Boyd’s coffee comes only in 100% compostable coffee pods. 100%. Compostable. All of it. The lid (even the inks!), the ring, and the mesh are all 100% compostable and also make extremely delicious coffee.
The beauty of switching to biodegradable coffee pods is that they leave behind no traces and can be composted. This eases the burden on landfills and our hearts and also creates rich soil amendments. This is what nature intended – the cycling of nutrients to keep soil healthy.
Check out all of our six different coffees available in compostable coffee pods.
Sustainability has no finish line. Compostable coffee pods are a total win-win. But they’re far from the extent of our efforts to protect the planet and the people who produce our coffee beans. If you’re curious about the many ways sustainability is woven into the fabric of how we operate, you can read our parent company’s report here: Farmer Brothers’ 2022 Sustainability Report here.
