Lot Gems130: Soil Matters

Boini Sanni Babu is very proud to be a farmer. In addition to coffee, he grows a wide range of fruit and forest crops to enrich his coffee farm and is inspired to let the coffee quality speak for itself and tell its story.

A shade-grown coffee mirrors the farms it was cultivated in, the quality of soil that nurtured the produce and the diverse trees surrounding it. Through the year, Sanni Babu fortifies his farm with regenerative soil bioinoculants for the cherries to mature evenly with excellent cupping outcomes. Gems130 authentically communicates the story of the nurturing microbes of Sanni babu’s biodiverse farm.
