SIMON AKEROYD × COFFEEB
Garden writer, Sunday Times bestselling author and passionate advocate for the outdoors, Simon Akeroyd has partnered with CoffeeB because great coffee and a love for nature belong together. Discover more about our partnership below and why CoffeeB’s compostable Coffee Balls make so much sense for a life spent in the garden.
THE STORY
A Partnership That Just Makes Sense
Some partnerships are planned. Others happen naturally.
When Simon first discovered CoffeeB, it wasn't simply the coffee that impressed him - it was the thinking behind it.
For decades, Simon has inspired people to spend more time outdoors, grow their own, care for wildlife and appreciate the simple joys that come from living closer to nature. His work has always been about making gardening accessible, enjoyable and sustainable, encouraging people to make small changes that have a lasting impact.
Those values couldn't be closer to our own.
At CoffeeB, we've reimagined the way people enjoy coffee. By replacing traditional plastic and aluminium pods with our innovative 100% compostable Coffee Balls, we've created a better way to enjoy exceptional coffee while reducing everyday waste.
For Simon, CoffeeB wasn't something that needed to fit into his lifestyle. It already did.
COFFEE WITH A CONSCIENCE
From Nature, Back to Nature
Whether it’s the first coffee of the morning before heading into the garden, a quiet moment in the greenhouse or a well-earned break after a day outdoors, those little rituals matter.
CoffeeB was designed with moments like these in mind.
Our Coffee Balls are made from premium ground coffee, protected by an ultra-thin plant-based layer. Once brewed, the whole Coffee Ball can go straight back into the garden.
“From cup to compost,” says Simon. “Crumble the balls and add them to your watering can to create a nutritional liquid plant feed.” Spent Coffee Balls can also be worked into the soil around your plants or composted in your garden, returning every ingredient to where it came from: the earth.
It’s a simple idea that makes a big difference.
