„As far as I know, the UW-Madison Memorial Union offers organic fair trade coffee as just one of its gourmet "alternatives" and they use the Alterra brand. We (obviously) have been pushing them to devote more time and energy into promoting such and would prefer that ALL the coffee at the union be organic fair trade shadegrown - but that's "pie in the sky" (we can't even get them to stop buying apparel from sweatshops...) A much better example is offered by Edgewood College in Madison (a smaller Catholic school) where ONLY fair trade coffee (I think it is Equal Exchange) is available in their cafeteria - they also sent a whole busload of people to SOA, so they practice what they preach.“

Tea & Coffee 05/02 - Looks Aren’t the Only Thing that Matters (Cont) (#)

„For the last five years, to cut down on unnecessary waste and help improve the environment, Alterra Coffee from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, cafes have been offering a 50 cent discount off of a pound of coffee if customers bring back their bag to have it refilled. Across the cafes, they have about 40 to 50% compliance with this practice and in their main store, that compliance jumps to 60%. President Ward Fowler talked about this practice, “This answers a couple of questions.“

„I personally felt that that was an erroneous statement. However, the coffee shop manager indicated that she would be willing to purchase Alterra's fair trade blends and give it a try as long as student reaction was favorable. I consider the whole event to have been a great success. My goal was to disseminate the information and foster awareness.“

Tea & Coffee 07/04 - The Craft of Espresso Roasting Part I (#)

„George Bregar, the coffee quality manager at Alterra Coffee Roasters, Inc. in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, also noted that he approaches his roasting for espresso uniquely; “About 10% of our roasting is solely for espresso. We approach roasting for espresso differently than we do for drip coffee.“

Tea & Coffee 09/02 - Coffee Retailer Discussion: The Art of Take-Away (Cont) (#)

„Using the business experience of his main café, Ward Fowler, president of Alterra Coffee in Milwaukee gave his take on the to-go business. "We open at 6:30 am, but the main business comes between 7:30 and 9:30 am, probably," Fowler explained. "The café is filled at that time, so we're not just a revolving door with paper cups.“
