Masada Laxmayya is scripting her own narrative of women and agriculture in village Kandamamidi of Paderu mandal. In a brief conversation, she reveals a paradigm that speaks for environmental ethics, and women in agriculture and society, seeking wellbeing of both - the nature and the people who care for it.
Laxmayya and her coffee farm have shared a long life together. She was always determined to make coffee her way, slowly yet consistently, by letting the nature in the farm bring out the best in the beans. Like her spirited persona, the coffee she produces exhibits a unique personality that is nurtured methodically with monthly farm practices. The testimony to her success is her contribution to microlot Gems152.
