During this process, my personal interest surrounding recycling and carbon emissions grew and I felt it important to integrate the two. We decided that as an SME, we would try to become carbon neutral by the end of 2022. There is a lot more to this story, but the short version is…‘we are learning a lot!’ When I first started roasting coffee, I never thought it would become a business....
