CoffeeKid - Late August Coffee Musings

CoffeeKid - Late August Coffee Musings ()

  „Last week, after a slight delay, I got a super care package from my fellow SCAA Consumer Marketing Committee member Colleen Crosby of Santa Cruz Coffee Roasters in Cali: 2lbs of their roasted Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Organic Fair Trade coffee, and an unprecedented 5lbs of it green (note: they DO NOT sell green coffee, pls don't order any). The green was sent so we could do some private cupping for Colleen and ourselves (Aaron and I). Colleen also sent a very informative and sometimes sobering video that her company produced about the coffee crisis and what can be done.“

  „A recent study conducted by students at the University of California-Santa Cruz found that the child malnutrition rates in the country's coffee regions are at 21 percent, compared to a national rate of nine percent. "When we say a coffee farmer is at risk, we're not just talking about the risk of losing their home," says Mike Maxey, Nicaragua's director for the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). "We are talking about people who are starving. Seventy percent of the rural population is living on less than two dollars a day."“
