What does shade grown mean, and is all your coffee shade grown?Updated 7 days ago

Shade grown coffee is grown under a canopy of trees instead of in cleared, full-sun fields. That tree cover is great for the planet:

• It provides habitat for birds and wildlife.
• It protects and enriches the soil.
• It supports a healthy local ecosystem.
• It often helps coffee ripen more slowly, which can improve flavor.

And yes, all of Larry’s coffee is shade grown. Learn more at https://larryscoffee.com/pages/farming-partners
