COLOMBIA - WILTON BENITEZ

After moving to Burundi in 2011 and witnessing both injustice and poor farming practices, Ben and Kristy Carlson decided to take upon coffee production by launching Long Miles Coffee with a farmer-driven business model. Over the years, they managed to improve the quality of coffees, and the lives of the farmers they work with by building new infrastructures, such as the Ninga washing station, offering year-round agriculture assistance, and promoting higher pay. Long Miles Coffee not only brings us beautiful micro-lots from Burundi, but offers a real impact at origin, and we can but only support their project!
