FARM INFO
This coffee is from the Association of Indigenous Agroecology Producers (ANEI), which was formed by Aurora Izquierdo. Aurora's goals were to address food scarcity, a poor education system and indigenous and rural economic crises, while also preserving forests, rivers and fauna. As such, she created a sustainable agriculture program that has since dramatically improved the quality of life and empowered women in indigenous communities.

FARM INFO
Kenya NKG Bloom Nguvu comes from a handful of cooperatives in central Kenya whose members are enrolled in NKG Bloom. Their coffee is grown on the slopes of Mount Kenya and the Aberdares mountain range. Cooperatives encourage their producer members to pick only the ripest of cherries, which are sorted before being pulped. Instead of being discarded, pulp waste is used to produce fertilizer.
Parchment is fermented overnight before being washed and graded in P1, P2, P3, and P lights and pods. Subsequently, the parchment is dried on raised tables for 8 to 14 days.
