Mini-documentary on Sin Limites coffee farm

Written by James Schutz |  June 24, 2009
We've released our first mini-documentary. In February, Poul and Chad traveled to Costa Rica and visited a little family-run coffee farm called Sin Limites. Soon after the visit, Sin Limites was hit with some really nasty weather, and their drying facility was destroyed in a storm. It just basically blew away.

Last week, transcend held a special coffee tasting fundraiser with Edmonton Slow Food as a benefit for Sin Limites. In the mini-documentary, Poul and Chad talk about the Sin Limites farm, the benefit tasting and provide some context for the video footage from their visit earlier in the spring.

If you're interested in where your coffee comes from, how it's grown, harvested, and produced, I think you'll find this video interesting. It's only 8 minutes long.

Please, leave a comment and let us know what you thought of this! We're trying a few new things out and we'd like to hear what you think. If you loved it, hated it, thought it was too long, just right, please take a second and tell us.

    I thought the video was nicely done with a good mix of video from Costa Rica and of discussion between Poul and Chad.

    Hi Poul, great vids, very informative. Nice to see you. I'll be in Edmonton later this summer and will stop in for a cup. God bless you.

    Well done! Bless you both. My heart goes out to Jamie and I'm wondering if you are accepting donations to assist in the rebuilding of what was lost? I would love to make a contribution - we take so much for granted here in Canada...it would be an honour to be able to help!
