Friends of Baucau coffee

We have been helping Friends of Baucau develop a new coffee label. Lee has been working on it and it is pretty gorgeous …. and really tells the story of the wonderful projects that have been delivered in Timor-Leste through the 20 year friendship that has been fostered through the Friends of Baucau formal partnership.

Friends of Baucau is a community group that supports local community initiatives on the ground in Timor-Leste. It also provides a framework and pathway for Yarra and Darebin Councils to work alongside and support the municipal government in Baucau as it gets established over there.

If you have an interest in Timor-Leste 🇹🇱 you can find out more about Friends of Baucau here.

If you have an interest in great coffee (or are looking for a gift that keeps on giving) you might like to buy this coffee. We have it for sale at ACC or you can pop past the Wingrove Street Milkbar to buy either beans or ground coffee (thanks Juliet for helping sell this for us!).

500 gram packs cost $20. The coffee is sourced from cooperative farms in Timor-Leste and roasted and packed by Coffee Mio just up the road in Thornbury. All the profits go straight back to supporting local Timorese led projects.

Do good. Drink (Friends of Baucau) coffee.
