Looks like not all Whole Foods stores carry it. If you have a Wild Birds Unlimited nearby it seems most of them do. I'm going to try the Birds & Beans Scarlet Tanager ordered online. Shipping is crazy expensive though. I'm buying it for DH as I no longer drink coffee, just tea.
A list of local Birds & Beans retailers if its nearby and you want to avoid shipping costs. Birds & Beans® - The Good Coffee |

We have bought coffee from Rogers Coffee Company for years. They are not on the Smithsonian list but work with biodiverse farms in several countries.

I got an email from the Birds & Beans company yesterday that offered a free 12oz bag of coffee with each order. In about a week or so we'll be trying two of their "Bird Friendly" coffees.
Birds & Beans® - The Good Coffee Right now mail order is really the only option for us; there are no local sources. I would really like to find a local organization or group of local coffee drinkers where we could pool orders and reduce the shipping costs.

It's been a while since this thread was active, but over the years I've continued to periodically look for a local source of bird friendly certified coffee.
A few weeks ago I went on another hunt for that elusive local source. I ran into several promising leads, but most of them turned out to be dead ends. Fortunately two leads did pan out! Both Target and Pick 'n Save stores carry "Cafe Fair" brand coffees. https://www.target.com/p/steep-brew-...z/-/A-47100947 https://www.picknsave.com/p/cafe-fair-organic-morning-blend-ground-coffee/0001678103550 Not all of the Cafe Fair branded coffees are certified bird friendly, but their "Morning Blend" is; and that happens to be the one that we like the most. It's easy to check if the one you are interested in is bird friendly, just look for the Smithsonian's bird friendly symbol on the package: https://nationalzoo.si.edu/migratory-birds/about-bird-friendly-coffee You can also check at the roaster's website: https://steepandbrewcoffee.com/coffees-for-home/cafe-fair/10-12-oz-retail-bags.html .
