Some months pass quietly. April does not. For coffee farmers, this is the point where small decisions start pushing a crop toward either struggle or strength. The pressure is real because the rains, the weeds, the pests, and the diseases all move fast. If April is handled well, the season ahead can look very different. […]
That smell hits first. The kind of fresh coffee aroma that makes everything else pause for a second and pulls you in before you even think about it.
