Jenipher’s Coffi: from bean to cup

Where does coffee come from? How does it grow? Why is it brown?

Ever wondered what the answers might be to some of these questions? Fear not, we’re here to help. While coffee is one of the nation’s favourite hot drinks, (95 million cups of coffee are drunk every day in the UK!!), we’re aware that not everyone knows how it’s made.

We’ve developed a set of educational resources, which can be used at home or in school so that you can get to know a little more about Jenipher’s Coffi’s journey from bean to cup.

How to use the resources?

We have created a set of presentations and activities that cover topics of literacy, numeracy and art and design. Follow the guides step by step, or get creative and mix and match. Enjoy!

Extra Activities – Literacy, numeracy and art & design
