Challenging infrastructure is dividing the farmers fincas from the cooperatives’ facilities. Mules play a valuable role in transporting the green coffee beans. They are large, strong, robust, live up to 40-50 years and excellent for transport in the mountain regions. Traction by animals is also environmentally appropriate for organic farming with less impact on nature compared to trucks. Hundreds of millions of people worldwide benefit from work animals.
Our friend and partner Daniel from @klimabohne visited some of the farmers of @asoprocafe organico Sierra Nevada in the remote altitudes of Colombia.
We are so thankful that he shares with us his experiences and talks with the families. Through Daniels dedication we are able to see into the work of small scale producers.
This is where your coffee comes from!
