Company Description
The farm recently suffered significant damage from Hurricane Melissa, which brought intense winds, heavy rains, and landslides to the Blue Mountains. Several sections of the access road were washed out, young coffee trees were uprooted, and critical areas of the farm’s already fragile infrastructure were further weakened. Despite this setback, the team remains committed to rebuilding smarter and more resilient—repairing access, stabilizing soil, replanting lost trees, and continuing a long-term plan to restore the property as a sustainable, community-centered coffee project.
