Zimbabwean farmers surviving on pennies prompts new coffee !

'Coffee is just a conduit. Coffee provides the opportunity for conversations.
And out of great conversations come relationships that can evoke change.'

Zimbabwean Coffee farmers are paid anywhere from a few cents to a few dollars for the coffee beans they pick. A farmer who is exceedingly efficient can pick up to 500 pounds of beans in one day. Nelson wants to change that by providing a delicious-tasting pour-over coffee from beans grown in Guatemala and Zimbabwe – and eventually elsewhere. For Nelson, his endeavor reaches far beyond the rich taste of exotic coffee. It’s about people.
