Cincinnati Coffee Festival is produced by and is a major fundraiser for Ohio River Foundation (ORF), a Cincinnati-based nonprofit with successful programs dedicated to protecting and improving the water quality and ecology of the Ohio River and its watershed.

The Ohio River Watershed stretches across 200,000 square miles, 11 states, and is home to 25 million people. ORF is the only regional conservation organization working to protect and improve the ecology of the Ohio River and its rivers and streams. Coffee has a natural connection to that mission.

“Many elements go into producing a great cup of coffee, but coffee is actually 98 percent water. Without great water, you can’t have great coffee,” said Judi Cogen, Cincinnati Coffee Festival event director. “It’s a great opportunity to educate people about the importance of protecting our local rivers and streams, so that we can ensure clean water for all.”

The Ohio River watershed is a place of recreation and commerce, wildlife habitat, and source of drinking water to millions of people. The health of the river and its tributaries affects the quality of life of everyone in the watershed.

“We’re very excited to be bringing the event to the region again this year. Thousands turn out each year to experience popular coffee roasters, tea providers, fine food purveyors, and live music. We look forward to putting on a wonderful event again at Music Hall, helping support the local coffee community, and raising funds for Ohio River Foundation,” said Cogen.

The Cincinnati Coffee Festival is open to the public and will have a large variety of local and regional coffee roasters in attendance such as local favorites La Terza, Deeper Roots, Viva Coffee Roasters, Seven Hills, and Carabello.

Finally, the Cincinnati Coffee Festival team is pleased to announce that Miami University student Klaire Vandegrift is the winner of this year’s poster contest.

Ohio River Foundation thanks these current event sponsors for making the event possible: Miir, Ernst & Young, Raymond James, La Terza, Carabello, Deeper Roots, Seven Hills and many more.
