Conserving Birds One Cup at a Time

A Spokane Audubon Society Presentation

What is the link between your morning joe and bird conservation? Find out from this interesting zoom presentation hosted by Spokane Audubon Society!

“Conserving Birds One Cup at a Time” will be presented by Kirstin Hill of Vancouver, B.C., manager of Smithsonian's Bird Friendly certification program, also available on-line via Zoom link at www.audubonspokane.org.

Hill will explain how coffee can affect local backyard birds by conserving habitat for migratory birds on coffee farms. She’ll describe the link between coffee and bird conservation, discuss what makes Bird Friendly certification the gold-standard for biodiversity protection, and share how to purchase bird-friendly coffee.

Hill is a conservationist at heart and an educator by training, with 15 years of experience working to engage audiences in the protection of wildlife and wild places. As the Smithsonian’s Bird Friendly Program Manager, she works alongside coffee companies to increase consumer awareness and support for Bird Friendly certified coffee.
