Organic Certification

FACT 1: Hammerhead Coffee Roasters buys only green coffee beans which have been certified organic. We have paperwork to document this.

FACT 2: Hammerhead Coffee Roasters has NOT undergone organic certification, and is NOT organic certified. Until we move to a different facility over which we have exclusive control, this won't be possible. 

FACT 3: Our roasted coffee is NOT legally organic or organic-certified, and we make no representations otherwise. Any use of the word "organic" on labels of coffee roasted by Hammerhead Coffee Roasters is illegal, and subject to hefty fines.

Fact 4: We have contacted the USDA about our website and packaging, and they have no issues with the language we use, as long as we don't represent ourselves as certifed organic, or our roasted coffee as certifed organic. A letter confirming their position vis a vis Hammerhead is on the way.

We understand we're in a gray area with regard to organic certification; we respect and appreciate those local roasters who have undergone the process. Hopefully, we'll join their ranks soon.
