A Replacement for Plastic K-Cups

The Green UMW working group is pleased to announce the availability of an alternative to plastic K-Cups®, right here on campus!

The UMW Bookstore offers Boyd’s Coffee compostable  pods, which will work in most brewers that accept K-Cup® portion packs, excluding Keurig® 2.0 brewers.  With a bio-based filter and a ring made of coffee chaff, Boyd’s pods provide a sustainable single-serve coffee solution that supports UMW’s goal of reducing plastic waste.

Mix and match by purchasing individual pods, or order a single blend by the case.  (When purchasing a case, please allow 5 business days between order date and delivery to the Bookstore.)

Departmental and Faculty Staff discounts apply!

Price per case (80 pods per case):

  • 20% department discount: $68.78
  • 10% fac/staff discount: $77.38

Please contact the University Bookstore for pricing on individual pods or to place an order for a case.

Your interest in and efforts towards reducing single use plastics are appreciated.  The switch to compostable pods will go a long way towards reaching our collective goal!

Sincerely,

The UMW Green Working Group

Holly, Kathy, and Melva
