Founder Margaret Nyamumbo is no stranger to being immersed in the coffee world. Her grandfather, who once drove for the colonial government, wound up getting his hands on just enough seedlings to launch his own coffee farm. Being immersed in the space, Nyamumbo noticed that while women provided 90% of the labor in the coffee fields, they only owned roughly 1% of the land, if that. Through her brand, she is curating delicious coffee flavors. Nyamumbo is on a mission to ensure that women farmers reap the rewards from their hard work, one blend sold at a time!
