WE ARE HERE TO HELP OUR HOME PLANET, ONE CUP OF COFFEE AT A TIME

Video
Curu is a revolutionary partnership between you, the coffee drinker and smallholder coffee farmers to turn coffee monocultures into biodiverse agroforests certified as agrotoxin free.

We create nature-positive farming in the Atlantic Forest. It´sa biodiversity hotspot, meaning it has a huge number of organisms found nowhere else on earth, at high risk of destruction due to human impact. All of us together can support marginalized farmers, the native ecosystem of the Atlantic Forest, protect standing forests and regenerate land through new coffee agroforests, farming and drinking coffee to help
40 hectares
of intensive coffee monocultures under contract
12 Farmers
converting their plantations to agroforests over 5 years
1,449 saplings
planted in 2023 and 2024, next planting November 2025
Agrotoxin Free
certification started by Curu farmers
Why Agrotoxin free not organic
Conventional coffee farming keeps soil barren

Is organic always best?
Switching to organic farming reduces productivity per hectare. That puts pressure on forests, when more land is needed for agriculture, forests are cut down.
Agrotoxin-free certification provides a middle ground, allowing chemical fertilizers to maintain high yields without expanding farmland.
This approach ensures soil regeneration and biodiversity protection. To compare: organic fertilizer reduces leaching and runoff that harms rivers and seas compared to chemical fertilizer, Agrotoxin free forest farming ensures ground cover and increased soil organic matter, which also reduces run off and leaching.
Agrotoxin-free coffee farming let's the earth live
