This is the 2nd episode of a new five-part series on The Daily Coffee Pro by the Map It Forward Podcast, hosted by Lee Safar. Our guest on the podcast today is Felipe Croce from FAF Coffees in Brazil. Felipe will be a trainer for our "Introduction to Regenerative Coffee Farming" online workshop series. In this episode, Lee and Felipe discuss the urgent need and transformative potential of regenerative coffee farming. As climate change accelerates, traditional monoculture methods are failing. Felipe explains the contrasts between conventional, regenerative, and agroforestry approaches, highlighting the importance of a collective movement toward sustainability and resilience. This episode also covers the dire climatic challenges facing Brazilian coffee farms and the invaluable role that regenerative practices play in combating these issues. Learn about the upcoming three-phase regenerative coffee farming workshop launching in October, and how it aims to turn the tide for coffee producers worldwide.
