What is Organic Agriculture Day?

To commemorate the 10th anniversary of the establishment and enforcement of the Organic Agriculture Promotion Act, December 8, 2016 was designated as Organic Agriculture Day. In support of the idea that this should be a milestone day for everyone to think about the future of agriculture and take action, Ogawa Coffee has been holding events to promote Organic Agriculture Day since 2018. Organic Agriculture Day is a delicious and fun anniversary where you can experience organic farming and other organic things and events in your daily life.

Environmentally friendly organic coffee from Ogawa Coffee

In order to continue delivering delicious coffee to everyone, Ogawa Coffee not only carefully selects ingredients, but also works to create a sustainable coffee growing environment. One example is "JAS Organic Certified Coffee." This is coffee grown without relying on pesticides, chemical fertilizers, or genetic modification, making the most of the power of nature. It is characterized by reducing the burden on the environment, such as the soil, and being kind to the producers who work on the farms.
Ogawa Coffee is actively working to popularize and increase awareness of organic coffee. The organic JAS certified coffee we handle is widely distributed in the domestic retail market, and Ogawa Coffee's directly managed stores offer a variety of organic coffees, including the "Organic House Blend."
