Our coffee farm (coffee forest) is part of the Sacred Groves (known by the names Betegara & Kuttichatha), located on the hilly forested heartland of the Indian Western Ghats. The coffee here is grown naturally under two-tiered shade on micro-lots with the utmost emphasis on sustainability. Our farms are testimonials of our Indigenous faith that safeguards the wildlife-rich coffee forests as a part of nature worship. We believe that if we protect the farm by not felling any trees nor harming wildlife, the reigning deity will protect us in return, and the farmers will prosper. At our farms, the wildlife, forests, and farmers utilize the natural resources in a mutually beneficial manner. Our farms produce some of the highest quality coffee while providing a natural habitat for a multitude of birds, bugs, wild cats, apes, elephants and other wildlife to thrive alongside coffee plants.

The Forest Bean coffee farmers, who belong to the ancient Kodava and Adivasi communities, employ traditional farming practices. These practices are designed to work in harmony with nature. We carefully handpick every bean and meticulously roast them to make an exquisite artisan product.

The presence of Totem Figurines on our farms shows the deep cultural significance of the coffee forest and surrounding wilderness. As a part of nature worship, we have been offering Totem Figurines to the deity of the Grove for centuries. These terracotta animal totems are placed throughout the Groves. Even now, century-old Totem Figurines can be found at several locations throughout the farms.
