Behind the Beans

Since the start of our partnership in 2021, we have focused on helping Manuel integrate native tree species to shade crops while maintaining the complex ecology between plants, fungi, and insects, intercropping coffee with flowers and legumes that naturally fix atmospheric nitrogen (a key nutrient for plant health) and attract pollinators, and replacing chemicals with organic fertilizers and compost wherever possible.
