Notes: Candied Pineapple, Brown Sugar, Shortbread
Roast: Light
Process: Washed
THE PROBLEM:
25% rise in demand by 2030 → but production is falling behind.
40–50 million bag shortage projected within just 5 years.
55 years old → the average age of today’s coffee farmer.
Less than 5% of the world’s farmers are under 35.
WHY THE GAP?
Market volatility, climate change, economic instability, and unlivable wages push young people away from farming.
Farming Age Gap
THE SOLUTION:
Wildflyer is integrating our mission across the supply chain.

IN THE MEDIA
Coffee That Creates
Opportunity. Equity. Sustainability. Futures.
“Only 10% of our farmers are under the age of 40,” Felix says, translating what Guillermo has just said in Spanish. “This is a real problem.” I nod my head. This is a problem. And that’s why I’m here.
