Coffee Harvest Trips
We travel to each of our partner farms in Mexico and Kenya and help pick and process the coffee on annual harvest trips with volunteers. We learn how coffee is grown in diverse agroforestry farms, especially how to harvest and process it. We see how important it is for the farmers to get a fair price for their coffee. Besides picking coffee, we spend much our time is spent bringing delicious, local food to the table. In Mexico, we prepare tortillas almost daily, starting with soaking the maize overnight and wet milling it into masa early in the morning, then hand pressing and cooking them over a hot wood fire. In Kenya, we pick some of the dozens of fruits that grow in the coffee farms like avocados, bananas, papayas, passion fruit, and macadamia nuts.
