Deans Beans was founded in 1993 by Dean Cycon, an environmental and indigenous rights lawyer who set out to prove that a for-profit business could create meaningful change through ethical business practices rooted in respect for the earth, the farmer, our co-workers and the consumer. Now Dean’s Beans Organic Coffee operates with the mission of using specialty coffee as a vehicle for positive social, economic and ecological change at origin.

Each coffee they roast comes from a unique geography and society. Dean's Beans has close relationships with their farmer cooperatives and work with them toward direct development projects and ecological responsibility. Meet the growers and learn about their coffees and their lands.
