Costa Rica: A Return to Origins

This blog will capture the experiences and learnings of our TWELVE Canadian participants.
Check back daily for updates and new postings.


Introducing a new Origin Experience program

Last February, the first group of Starbucks partners traveled to Costa Rica to take part in the pilot Origin trip. Less than a year later, another twelve Canadian partners have been awarded the same opportunity to visit, learn, harvest and truly experience life at our farms in Costa Rica. Follow along and learn from their daily adventures. Through this powerful first-hand experience, partners will be better able to understand and articulate ethical sourcing practices, quality standards and relationship with farmers. It will also help us create a network of passionate advocates to inspire customers and other partners, as well as serve as coffee leaders.
