What Footprint Coffee says about this coffee
Costa Rica – El Bosque
More about the Mill & Family
The family has been operating their coffee farm business for as long as they can remember. Due to financial difficulties, they decided to start their own micro-mill and roasted coffee brand in 2020-21; Mayra Solis (mother); Eduardo Porras Solis (first son); Maria Delfina Porras Solis (second daughter); Dalila Pora
How did they get started?
They started their micro-mill as a family project during the 2020-21 harvest season. Previously, they had been selling through a cooperative, but they decided to make this change because they felt that selling only cherries wouldn’t allow them to build a better life economically. Moreover, around this time, Delfina (the second daughter) graduated from university and began working as a youth trainer for Bean Voyage, and at the same time, the youngest daughter Dalila and mother Mayra also joined Bean Voyage’s training program. In the educational program, they learned about sustainable methods for growing better coffee, among other things, and they are nurturing their dreams by directly applying the knowledge gained from the program to their farm and mill.

What the roaster says about where it came from
We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.
