What if I told you it started as a seed, became a flowering plant, produced a fruit with a pit, or bean, inside. Do I have your attention now? I bet now that I made you think, you want your coffee organically grown and minimally handled – and only by the highest quality persons with professional integrity – from seedling until it reaches your cup?”
