Forecast Coffee Company is an extension of parent company Tony's Coffee, a widely recognized NW coffee brand that was launched in 1971 in Bellingham, WA. Tony's has had a long and successful history and still roasts in Bellingham today. Forecast Coffee was launched in late 2022 as the next step in their sustainability journey. This new line of coffee is a natural progression resulting from their continued work with the Fair Trade Certified Organic Coffee system, their desire to support sustainable practices in the coffee industry, and their commitment to being a carbon-neutral roastery. Forecast Coffee also features coffee bags that are made from plant-based materials. 

Forecast Coffee farming partners practice agroforestry—growing coffee alongside native trees and shrubs. It is a proven method that combats climate change, promotes biodiversity, and provides necessary habitats. This approach eliminates the need for chemical pesticides and fungicides, improving farmworker health and reducing contaminated water run-off effects. The resulting habitats provide homes for pest predators like birds, bats, ladybugs, spiders, and lizards. The integrated growing environment also generates diverse income sources and food security, particularly from honey production and fruit trees. Agroforestry farms can absorb up to 69.5 tons of carbon per hectare, protecting Arabica coffee plants from temperature volatility. By supporting farmers who seek to mimic and learn from these natural systems, Forecast Coffee helps foster fertile, resilient settings that produce wonderful coffees to roast and savor.
