A rare, single-origin microlot, honey-processed and regeneratively grown by the women of Finca Santa Maria, Colombia. Notes of honeysuckle, lemongrass, and apricot. A portion of proceeds supports the Center for Mind-Body Medicine, whose work helps clinicians, educators, and community leaders bring practical tools for self-care, resilience, and healing to the people and communities they serve.

Crafted in remembrance of those who've gone back to the stars, knowing their love lives on.

Dedicated to Phyllis

This coffee my mother, Phyllis, passed away twenty years ago. Yet we still celebrate the day she returned home to the stars. In our family, we call this day her Starday.

This year’s Starday coffee comes from Santa Maria, a women-led farm in Colombia, where the growers are mothers. Their care, resilience, and devotion to future generations felt especially fitting for this tribute.

In honor of my mother, a portion of every bag supports the Center for Mind-Body Medicine, helping teachers, therapists, caregivers, and communities bring healing to children and families around the world.
