As stewards of the environment, we support sustainable ways to grow coffee and respect the land. In Brazil, that means supporting a partnership with forward-thinking coffee farmers using an innovative and buzzworthy partner – bees. By introducing beehives to their lands, farmers like Maria Beatriz are using nature’s pollinators to support crop production. Plus, they’re able to earn additional income by selling the bees’ honey. In short, bee pollination helps farmers grow coffee in a more sustainable way and diversify their income.
