Coffees from Brazil
Our partner in Brazil
Felipe Croce Fazenda Ambiental Fortaleza
A pioneer of regenerative coffee farming in Brazil, Marcos Croce began by creating a plantation under the forest, planting hundreds of trees, creating ponds, and converting his farm to poly-organic farming. Production was then divided by 1000.
He then set up a network of small local producers to protect water sources and share good social and environmental practices, and managed to add value to their production by selling directly to roasters at higher-than-market prices.
This is the famous Bob o Link Project, now a brand distributed worldwide, and exported by FAF Coffees.

In 2016, it was time for Christophe to fly to Brazil, the world's leading producer of Arabica coffee. A country whose production has a considerable influence on the world market.
In the regions of Minas Gerais and Sao Paulo, Christophe meets two agricultural models at opposite extremes.
First in Monte Alegre, then east of Mococa, at the Croce family's Fazenda Ambiantal Fortaleza, or FAF farm.
Two agricultural models and, therefore, two ways of approaching coffee production when, increasingly, the only path that counts for Christophe is that of sustainability.
