The two coffees at Puget Consumers Coop (PCC) in Seattle that are shade
grown are Kalani (located in Seattle) and Cafe Tierra (distributed by
CBI, Inc. of Portland). Jane's warning is a good one: organic does not
mean shade grown.

Seattle Audubon Migratory Bird Committee has produced a great brochure to
educate the public about coffee and birds. It is being distributed at
PCC (and other places I'm sure).
