It's all about how it's grown and processed. In the past few years, Ecuador has made impressive farming techniques. Coffee in Ecuador is mainly cultivated on small family farms that prioritize sustainability and eco-friendly practices.
- Sustainable Farming Practices: Ecuadorian coffee farmers take immense pride in their commitment to sustainable farming. They focus on farming methods that are good for the earth, like organic farming and growing coffee in the shade. These methods not only help protect the environment but also make the beans taste better and improve their quality.
- Direct Trade and Fairness: At iGUANA, we are very committed to promoting fair trade and helping the areas where our products are made. So, we work closely with Ecuador's coffee farmers to ensure they get paid fairly for their hard work. By buying beans directly from these farms, we build long-term relationships built on trust, respect, and helping each other out.
