About this listen
Lucy Ward is green coffee buyer for one of Australia's biggest and most influential coffee brands, ST ALI.
Kirk and Lucy are former colleagues and discuss at length an existential threat to coffee not enough people are talking about: The aging workforce at coffee origins.
Recently we learned that the average age of a coffee farmer in Colombia, one of the worlds biggest coffee producing countries, is 58.
With coffee farmers aging and not enough young people interested in becoming coffee farmers, we have a looming crisis that requires solutions fast.
