In this conversation, we heard about Ben’s journey that led him into coffee and the genesis of Long Miles as coffee producers.

Over and over during this interview, Ben kept coming back to the fact that people are the reasons we do the work we do in coffee and creating meaningful relationships are the backbone of what we know to be specialty coffee.

Couldn’t have said it better Ben! Thank you, for modeling Ubuntu for us and the rest of the coffee industry. We need it!
