I grow my own Coffee Arabica here in Zimbabwe - its all naturally grown without any fertilizer, only compost & manure. I get around 2kg of roasted coffee beans per plant per year & I have about 20 trees. More than enough for my neighbors & I!
@@PsillyApeUSA It’s like boasting about having a generator that can power your own home, but no one else. That amount would need to be replicated dozens of times to supply enough for local towns.
@@ShaneyElderberrymaybe he has a point. Maybe we should have less of importing and shipping crops all over the place and grow and eat more foods that are actually local and seasonal to us.
I'm form Vietnam, and as a coffee lovers, thanks for this video that helps me to understand the other sides of coffee. Sorry for my bad English, wish all of you will be great all time.
Purchased a coffee farm in Colombia post covid as farmers there were desperate to sell as years of low coffee prices had devastated their livelihood. They in turn turned to cheap chemical fertilizers to meet their expenses which in turn scorched the soil with years to get back to normal soil PH level. Many small farm owner’s children are heading to cities as they can’t make enough to even meet costs. Only those staying behind are large farm owners and those who can use the existing coffee farms as a private resort ( which is what I am doing). I have even uprooted a quarter of coffee plants on degraded soil and planted native trees so we can at least increase biodiversity. Coffee as a business is terrible and only suitable for those who have secondary source of income. Oh yes, the evil firm lurking behind to ensure farmers stay poor….Nespresso Aka Nestle. Their sustainable practices and rain forest certification are a joke for the price they pay these gullible farmers.
I think you missed the piece of Brazil. They produced coffee at all cost… mass production on a huge farm land even cutting down the forest gives them huge advantageous in scale of economic.
I grow coffee in Brasil and have none of these issues mentioned here. I also cross pollinate species to get stronger, more disease resistant strains of Coffee while protecting the flavours we love.
Please, more brazilians should comment here to avoid mistakes about our industry here. They were totally biased showing farmers burning to depreciate our prices in the stock market.
Interesting because not in Brazil have this issue like in Europe. EU always will put something to block Brazilians goods like coffee,woods even from reforestation, etc
It’s not just coffee, the problem is with monoculture of any plants on land. The way we mass produce any product is bad for the environment period, unless big food corps can admit to this there is nothing anyone can do to make a difference.
Thank you DW for another great documentary ! I really enjoy and learn so much from you. I'm from Brazil, and to be honest, nowadays it's rare for me to watch TV from my own country. The content available for free on TH-cam and specially in your channel is much more interesting. I hope i can watch your channel for years to come! Obrigado ! ☑☑☑
Thank you DW , I too love your work we appreciate, Im from uganda I watch all your documentaries every time u post. My request is please come to UGANDA too, and get to know our tasty coffee and if possible we German consumers. To buy from mi direct.
When I was a kid in Holualoa, Hawai'i, there were all kinds of different trees (banana, macadamia, avocado, etc.) and plants (ginger, ferns, pineapples etc.) growing amongst the coffee trees.
Thank you for the educative documentation of the work dedicated to harnessing agroecological practices. And the touch of music was really amazing, Imagine enjoying it while learning.
I switch drinking from coffee and tea often. It's boring to stick to one. Most importantly, clean water is precious. Not those bottled water. Natural water needed both for drinking and farming.
It was a wonderful ,interesting, and intellectual documentary about coffee ❤☕️ ❤️ .documentary introduced climate change and climate changes massive effectiveness on coffee plantation in Uganda 🇺🇬. While Ecuador 🇪🇨 through the preservation of farms' health through diversity of trees 🌳 plantation in one farm as framers ancestors did ....before Gaint companies around the world 🌎 exploiting large area of farms for one agriculture product ( rejected diversity which destroyed the health of farms 🚜 besides deforestation of forests....it was a great documentary..thanks
Coffee is one of my favourite things in life, but I agree it does have too high carbon footprint. Recently I've been trying to substitute it partially with chicory coffee and yerba mate. Thanks for the interesting video. Perhaps you could make an entire documentary about intercropping? In hotter areas of the world it's very popular, but nearly unknown in Europe. There's been some amazing long-term research on intercropping published in the recent years. Stuff worth sharing
Yerba mate vs. coffee Yerba mate is not only claimed to be better for you than coffee, it's also been proven to be healthier than green tea. Also, Yerba mate is filled with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. Turns out this little beverage is a nutritional powerhouse!2 Mar 2019
this documentary is distorted as it is not distinguishing between commercial and specialty coffee which are different markets! The new york commodities exchange determines the global price of commercial coffee which is based on exploitation of producers.... In central america farmers are abandoning coffee as the cost of picking coffee is higher than the gains...
@DW Documentary, guys who is editing and approving these videos? 4:24, the BGM is wayyy to loud, doesn't fit the topic and interferes with the VO. Hire me as your post production supervisor.
Now in my country Ivory Coast, it's already coffee season but it lacks, it's so difficult to find coffee and when you've found it, it's expensive. Before this season, a cup of coffee was 100Fcfa but now it's 150 and 200 fcfa
True that, is getting extremely commoditized to level we as roasters never had seen before, especially in South East Asia. The entire sustainability approach, organic systems, tariff that no longer serve the purpose, they break down like a deck of cards. All over EU paid too much externalities for a cup of coffee.
Fair price = price control, is it not ? 20:35 What kinda BS is that, British colonies had to change coffee types in different regions for this very reason - pests, over a 150 years ago and everyone was riding around on horseback !
I very much like coffee. Drink it every morning brewed at home. Twice I’ve gone a year without it. But I’m ready to start drinking many different kinds of herbal teas instead. Coffee for me can be an occasional treat from 2024 and on ….
Better coffee agriculture practices are needed for sure. However I think many in the industry overemphasize taste, like these people. Kind of like with alcohol, the majority of people drink coffee for the caffeine hit. For that, the price cannot get too high. (like most people aren't buying expensive whisky's but a cheaper pilsner)I think the majority of people are okay with a lesser tasting coffee as long as it still okay and a bit cheaper. This is why emphasizing on taste won't save coffee in my opinion. Mostly the minority that are really into coffee will enjoy that.
Although you are correct, it’s also the case that close to 100% of the people who seek specialty coffees from unique roasters are interested in the taste of the coffee. The roasters in the video certainly have patrons who care, and are willing to make regular orders if the flavors appeal to them. Even funky and odd flavors find their patrons.
@@ShaneyElderberry Oh for sure they know how to target their audience. And I think those smaller roasters have a customer base that values sustainability. But we really need to know how the larger industry as a whole is moving to a more sustainable future. That is where the real impact can be made. I think a lot of videos/docs like these are conflating the two.
As a consumer, coffee in specific, and caffeine in general, it comes down to pricing. Want to curb consumption? Raise prices. Unless I'm affected financially, I don't really give a rat-a**. Fast food, plastic, cigarette.
Lots of warm fuzzy feelings here, but ideally some knowledge of coffee, South America, economics, and some common sense should have been used in the production of this sentimentary.

Ptaah: 77. The population of Akart however no longer exists since the year 2007, because in the only 32 years from 1975 to 2007 their total population had increased to 34 billion (34,000,000,000), when through their stupidity, like also is apparent with the terrestrial population, nature and the climate were completely destroyed, when, in the end, an oxygen collapse and an atmosphere collapse occurred, as you have described this. 78. As a result all life was wiped out on that planet. Billy_Meier/Contact_Report_476 Ptaah: 39. An oxygen collapse, respectively, an atmospheric collapse, arises as a result of a massive over-impregnation of the atmosphere by the molecule CO2, which enters the atmosphere, as well as the oceans and other bodies of water, as well as the soil of the Earth, and radically alters the climate. 40. An oxygen and atmospheric collapse would be evoked by a massive excess of CO2, which means a bad fate for the entire Earth humanity which would evoke a threatening catastrophe consisting of the destruction of life itself. 41. This is caused by the incessantly growing overpopulation, through which constantly more monstrous amounts of CO2 are produced and, with that, not only the air is impregnated, but actually everything up to the highest heights of the mountains and the deepest depths of the oceans is impregnated. 42. The molecule already exists in dangerous amounts everywhere on the entire Earth and unfolds its dangerousness which does not only express itself in the destructive manner, being climate change, with all the natural catastrophes which more and more take the upper hand, which always demand more and more human lives and cause destruction which cannot again be repaired in a practical amount of time. 43. And actually, all of that is founded singly and alone in the overpopulation of the Earth-humans, who senselessly multiply like noxious vermin and thereby also produce more damaging material of all kinds, and CO2, and thereby impregnate the atmosphere and reduce the oxygen content. 44. This, along with all other destructive machinations like the logging and clearing of the rainforests - the green lungs of the Earth - and, bound to that, the creation of infertile desert areas. 45. Naturally the Earth has always contained the molecule CO2, but the CO2 content has drastically risen through the irrational pushing ahead of the overpopulation which constantly burns more fossil fuels, such as coal, petroleum and gas, principally through the internal combustion engines of road and marine vehicles, work machinery, and aircraft engines, as well as through nonsensical kinds of motor sports. 46. In addition to that is still the enormous overproduction of animals, which are bred as means of nourishment for the humans and which exhale, and release from the colon, horrendous amounts of methane and other gasses. 47. But also, due to the thawing of the permafrost, enormous amounts of all kinds of dangerous gasses are released which enter the air. 48. Further, it is also the Earth human himself who puts CO2 in the air through his exhalation, and indeed already in dangerous amounts, as a result of the monstrous overpopulation. 49. Every year, in this way, the Earth human is to blame that millions of tonnes of dangerous materials are produced, along with other poisons, and are blown into the air, and that increases as the incessantly growing overpopulation increases. 50. And actually today Earth humanity stands on the brink of the serious threat that everything is leading to a collapse, as was the case with Akart. 51. And if a stop, in a rational way, is not finally ordered to the overpopulation then it all increases more and more, and faster, whereby, finally, nothing more can be saved. 52. If, therefore, the CO2 content continues rising unabated, then the catastrophe is no longer avoidable. 53. And a rapid reduction can, singly and alone, only come about through the prevention of overpopulation, because actually only in that way does all the nonsensical production of CO2 also rapidly decrease. 54. But if that is given no heed then the oxygen content and the atmosphere of the Earth would be so overburdened by CO2 that a collapse would unavoidably result. 55. And if the concentration of the molecules climbs in this manner then the respiration of all relevant life-forms on the Earth would be so impaired that it would no longer be possible for them to take up sufficient oxygen. 56. When inhaled, the CO2 concentration already becomes deadly for Earth-humans, and for the other actual oxygen-breathers, when it only amounts to eight percent. Billy_Meier/Contact_Report_481 Ptaah: 91. The overpopulation of the Earth-humans and their machinations produce more and more dangerous substances which are released into the nature and the atmosphere, causing enormous changes which are also reflected in the density and formation of the clouds. 92. All the dirt produced by overpopulation and released into the atmosphere as aerosols from the Earth, together with space dust and cosmic radiation, are the factors responsible for cloud depletion. 93. Depending on the intensity of the sun, which forms a stronger or weaker protective shield for cosmic rays, the intensity of cosmic rays that reach the terrestrial spheres where clouds form also changes. 94. However, it is not only the Sun but also the Earth's magnetic field that is of great importance, because depending on its strength more or less cosmic rays penetrate the Earth's atmosphere. 95. And for a century now, the intensity of the Sun's and the Earth's magnetic field has been very strong, so less cosmic rays penetrate the Earth, thus thinning the clouds. 96. So along with the actual cosmic rays, the Sun is also a decisive factor that must be taken into account in relation to the greenhouse effect, but this does not detract from the fact that the main factor is all the dirt, carbon dioxide and toxic gases, etc. that are thrown into the atmosphere by Earth-humans. 97. And the greater the mass of overpopulation becomes, the more all these destructive substances are released into nature and into the atmosphere, etc. and cause tremendous changes. 98. The clouds are being supersaturated with aerosols from the Earth, causing enormous masses of water vapour to bind to them as raindrops or ice, which then fall down to the Earth in floods and cascades. 99. And the fact that this results in violent reactions in nature, which lead to elemental storms, which bring real floods or ice storms and hailstorms, rests in the law of nature, when the clouds are inevitably emptied. 100. The whole thing also leads to a clearing of the clouds by emptying the clouds, which means that they become thinner, allowing more solar radiation to penetrate the Earth and, together with all the irresponsible, destructive machinations caused by Earth-humans with regard to Earth, nature, life-forms and climate influence, this causes the greenhouse effect. 101. So, in principle, more and more constant clouds would have to hover over the Earth, which is normally regulated and kept in balance by cosmic rays, which would allow less solar radiation to penetrate and avoid a greenhouse effect, but could also be cooler. 102. If not for all the dirt from the Earth that enters the atmosphere and forces the clouds to open their floodgates to real floods and ice storms and hailstorms and cause tremendous storms, the clouds could normalise together with the cosmic rays, thus allowing more clouds to enter and reduce solar radiation and the greenhouse effect. 103. This, however, would be a lengthy process over a very long period of time, which would also require, first and foremost, that overpopulation be drastically reduced by a worldwide and far-reaching birth regulation.

From my perspective, it is a bad idea to work with suppliers from unfree countries, where the law is almost non-existent and corruption is widespread. Honest people do not become 'head of a coffee farmers alliance' or business owners in such countries. If you care about sustainability and fairness, work with democratic countries, where civil rights are respected.
This American fastest long-range reconnaissance aircraft flying at an altitude of 26,000 meters at Mach 3.5 carries 46,254 liters of fuel. It consumes 21,000 liters per hour of flight, and the cost of one hour of flight is $18,000. The average EU country with population around 38 Milion people uses yearly - 28 million cubic meters. That means per person in the scale of year it is burned 760 liters of fuel - I ask, who is really polluting the planet? Why is there an organized ecological charade that indoctrinates people with nonsense, making them believe they are the ones responsible for climate change, and therefore must be taxed for it?" This emphasizes the disparity between individual fuel consumption and the massive fuel requirements of a high-speed aircraft like the SR-71 Blackbird, questioning the focus of environmental policies on individual contributions rather than larger-scale industrial or military activities
This documentary just predicted that by 2050 half of the world’s coffee belt production regions will be depleted, meaning in 2050 will have only 50% of today’s coffee production. This is an appalling yet laughable prediction, where do you guys get this numbers and analysis? DW please elaborate on this one, how half the equatorial regions will stop producing coffee? And by the way in a few decades Liberica will be on the same spot that Robusta coffee is now after over exploitation and mono-cultivation.
Producing coffee in many areas will become economically not viable: it will become too expensive to produce, because with climate change yields will decrease. Many farmers with coffee plantations will give up and switch to other plants that are easier to grow in their areas and new climate. Other areas may become more suitable for coffee, but there are no cofee plants growing there yet, and it takes many years and much investment to start a coffee growing plantation. 50% is a rough estimate - you can calculate your own numbers, if you feel like it.
It seems to evade a lot of people in the Documentation that there is something like a world market for coffee. The price of coffee is currently low not because of exploitation and several other ideologically based factors mentioned in the report, but because there were huge centrally planned coffee producing programs put into action in several States, especially in Vietnam in the past, which swamped the market with coffee which led to lower prices. Whenever world wide coffee production goes down, prices go up. Everybody can look it up on the international exchanges (here best Chicago). The documentary would benefit if it concentrated on the subject and not woke expectations. "Hamburg profited from Colonialism" - what does that have to do with the topic?, just to mention one example. By the way, during the last 60 years coffee was supposed to be on the way out several times and Bananas, and Tomatoes, and so on). Just the stated reasons sounded different. Today everything is "Climate Change".
The climate of the earth has always changed no matter what or how much co2 is in the air Antarctica was once covered in forest and so was the artic so it will continue to change. 😊
Calm down, people. The world is going to be unsuitble to human life soon enough, so we don't need to worry about coffee disapearing. We're leaving first.😂😂

39. An oxygen collapse, respectively, an atmospheric collapse, arises as a result of a massive over-impregnation of the atmosphere by the molecule CO2, which enters the atmosphere, as well as the oceans and other bodies of water, as well as the soil of the Earth, and radically alters the climate.
40. An oxygen and atmospheric collapse would be evoked by a massive excess of CO2, which means a bad fate for the entire Earth humanity which would evoke a threatening catastrophe consisting of the destruction of life itself.
41. This is caused by the incessantly growing overpopulation, through which constantly more monstrous amounts of CO2 are produced and, with that, not only the air is impregnated, but actually everything up to the highest heights of the mountains and the deepest depths of the oceans is impregnated.
42. The molecule already exists in dangerous amounts everywhere on the entire Earth and unfolds its dangerousness which does not only express itself in the destructive manner, being climate change, with all the natural catastrophes which more and more take the upper hand, which always demand more and more human lives and cause destruction which cannot again be repaired in a practical amount of time.
43. And actually, all of that is founded singly and alone in the overpopulation of the Earth-humans, who senselessly multiply like noxious vermin and thereby also produce more damaging material of all kinds, and CO2, and thereby impregnate the atmosphere and reduce the oxygen content.
44. This, along with all other destructive machinations like the logging and clearing of the rainforests - the green lungs of the Earth - and, bound to that, the creation of infertile desert areas.
45. Naturally the Earth has always contained the molecule CO2, but the CO2 content has drastically risen through the irrational pushing ahead of the overpopulation which constantly burns more fossil fuels, such as coal, petroleum and gas, principally through the internal combustion engines of road and marine vehicles, work machinery, and aircraft engines, as well as through nonsensical kinds of motor sports.
46. In addition to that is still the enormous overproduction of animals, which are bred as means of nourishment for the humans and which exhale, and release from the colon, horrendous amounts of methane and other gasses.
47. But also, due to the thawing of the permafrost, enormous amounts of all kinds of dangerous gasses are released which enter the air.
48. Further, it is also the Earth human himself who puts CO2 in the air through his exhalation, and indeed already in dangerous amounts, as a result of the monstrous overpopulation.
49. Every year, in this way, the Earth human is to blame that millions of tonnes of dangerous materials are produced, along with other poisons, and are blown into the air, and that increases as the incessantly growing overpopulation increases.
50. And actually today Earth humanity stands on the brink of the serious threat that everything is leading to a collapse, as was the case with Akart.
51. And if a stop, in a rational way, is not finally ordered to the overpopulation then it all increases more and more, and faster, whereby, finally, nothing more can be saved.
52. If, therefore, the CO2 content continues rising unabated, then the catastrophe is no longer avoidable.
53. And a rapid reduction can, singly and alone, only come about through the prevention of overpopulation, because actually only in that way does all the nonsensical production of CO2 also rapidly decrease.
54. But if that is given no heed then the oxygen content and the atmosphere of the Earth would be so overburdened by CO2 that a collapse would unavoidably result.
55. And if the concentration of the molecules climbs in this manner then the respiration of all relevant life-forms on the Earth would be so impaired that it would no longer be possible for them to take up sufficient oxygen.
56. When inhaled, the CO2 concentration already becomes deadly for Earth-humans, and for the other actual oxygen-breathers, when it only amounts to eight percent.

91. The overpopulation of the Earth-humans and their machinations produce more and more dangerous substances which are released into the nature and the atmosphere, causing enormous changes which are also reflected in the density and formation of the clouds.
92. All the dirt produced by overpopulation and released into the atmosphere as aerosols from the Earth, together with space dust and cosmic radiation, are the factors responsible for cloud depletion.
93. Depending on the intensity of the sun, which forms a stronger or weaker protective shield for cosmic rays, the intensity of cosmic rays that reach the terrestrial spheres where clouds form also changes.
94. However, it is not only the Sun but also the Earth's magnetic field that is of great importance, because depending on its strength more or less cosmic rays penetrate the Earth's atmosphere.
95. And for a century now, the intensity of the Sun's and the Earth's magnetic field has been very strong, so less cosmic rays penetrate the Earth, thus thinning the clouds.
96. So along with the actual cosmic rays, the Sun is also a decisive factor that must be taken into account in relation to the greenhouse effect, but this does not detract from the fact that the main factor is all the dirt, carbon dioxide and toxic gases, etc. that are thrown into the atmosphere by Earth-humans.
97. And the greater the mass of overpopulation becomes, the more all these destructive substances are released into nature and into the atmosphere, etc. and cause tremendous changes.
98. The clouds are being supersaturated with aerosols from the Earth, causing enormous masses of water vapour to bind to them as raindrops or ice, which then fall down to the Earth in floods and cascades.
99. And the fact that this results in violent reactions in nature, which lead to elemental storms, which bring real floods or ice storms and hailstorms, rests in the law of nature, when the clouds are inevitably emptied.
100. The whole thing also leads to a clearing of the clouds by emptying the clouds, which means that they become thinner, allowing more solar radiation to penetrate the Earth and, together with all the irresponsible, destructive machinations caused by Earth-humans with regard to Earth, nature, life-forms and climate influence, this causes the greenhouse effect.
101. So, in principle, more and more constant clouds would have to hover over the Earth, which is normally regulated and kept in balance by cosmic rays, which would allow less solar radiation to penetrate and avoid a greenhouse effect, but could also be cooler.
102. If not for all the dirt from the Earth that enters the atmosphere and forces the clouds to open their floodgates to real floods and ice storms and hailstorms and cause tremendous storms, the clouds could normalise together with the cosmic rays, thus allowing more clouds to enter and reduce solar radiation and the greenhouse effect.
103. This, however, would be a lengthy process over a very long period of time, which would also require, first and foremost, that overpopulation be drastically reduced by a worldwide and far-reaching birth regulation.

From my perspective, it is a bad idea to work with suppliers from unfree countries, where the law is almost non-existent and corruption is widespread.
Honest people do not become 'head of a coffee farmers alliance' or business owners in such countries.
If you care about sustainability and fairness, work with democratic countries, where civil rights are respected.
Soon ai will take over 😅
If you’re sus about biodiversity
Activists & elites can’t flood towns right now. It takes buckets
This American fastest long-range reconnaissance aircraft flying at an altitude of 26,000 meters at Mach 3.5 carries 46,254 liters of fuel. It consumes 21,000 liters per hour of flight, and the cost of one hour of flight is $18,000. The average EU country with population around 38 Milion people uses yearly - 28 million cubic meters. That means per person in the scale of year it is burned 760 liters of fuel - I ask, who is really polluting the planet? Why is there an organized ecological charade that indoctrinates people with nonsense, making them believe they are the ones responsible for climate change, and therefore must be taxed for it?"
This emphasizes the disparity between individual fuel consumption and the massive fuel requirements of a high-speed aircraft like the SR-71 Blackbird, questioning the focus of environmental policies on individual contributions rather than larger-scale industrial or military activities
This documentary just predicted that by 2050 half of the world’s coffee belt production regions will be depleted, meaning in 2050 will have only 50% of today’s coffee production. This is an appalling yet laughable prediction, where do you guys get this numbers and analysis? DW please elaborate on this one, how half the equatorial regions will stop producing coffee? And by the way in a few decades Liberica will be on the same spot that Robusta coffee is now after over exploitation and mono-cultivation.
They make it up out of thin air. Climate change is Politics.
Producing coffee in many areas will become economically not viable: it will become too expensive to produce, because with climate change yields will decrease. Many farmers with coffee plantations will give up and switch to other plants that are easier to grow in their areas and new climate.
Other areas may become more suitable for coffee, but there are no cofee plants growing there yet, and it takes many years and much investment to start a coffee growing plantation.
50% is a rough estimate - you can calculate your own numbers, if you feel like it.

It seems to evade a lot of people in the Documentation that there is something like a world market for coffee. The price of coffee is currently low not because of exploitation and several other ideologically based factors mentioned in the report, but because there were huge centrally planned coffee producing programs put into action in several States, especially in Vietnam in the past, which swamped the market with coffee which led to lower prices. Whenever world wide coffee production goes down, prices go up. Everybody can look it up on the international exchanges (here best Chicago). The documentary would benefit if it concentrated on the subject and not woke expectations. "Hamburg profited from Colonialism" - what does that have to do with the topic?, just to mention one example. By the way, during the last 60 years coffee was supposed to be on the way out several times and Bananas, and Tomatoes, and so on). Just the stated reasons sounded different. Today everything is "Climate Change".
good then,we guys indonesian should grow more coffee tree
Coffee is a waste... please stop drinking coffee.
Coffee is the only drug most people do😂😂legally
Only water should be allowed.
@@jim_jim1674 Nah, people will just piss it away.
My coffee tasted bland lately. Blame climate change I supposed.
its the barista
mmm drink coffee and sleep tomorrow
The climate of the earth has always changed no matter what or how much co2 is in the air Antarctica was once covered in forest and so was the artic so it will continue to change. 😊
Another scam to raise coffee prices 😂
0:02 Did i hear my naija song on DW? That should be omah lay's Soso.
I have an Arabica coffee farm in VietNam, if you want to know about Vietnamese coffee, contact me.
Everything very interesting but you know that it is potent drug?
Calm down, people.
The world is going to be unsuitble to human life soon enough, so we don't need to worry about coffee disapearing.
We're leaving first.😂😂
Maybe if you live close to the equator. Out here in the northern US, the weather is just getting nicer.
I'm trying to use biblical practices for my fruit trees. I wonder if the same principles apply to coffee.
