About Producer & Farm
The Long Miles Coffee Project was started by Ben and Kristy Carlson, who moved to Burundi in 2011 with a simple goal: to help coffee farmers and connect them with roasters looking for high-quality coffee.
What began with just 50 farmers in 2013 has now grown to working with over 5,500 farmers. Their work has not only brought out Burundi’s potential for amazing coffee but has also made a big difference in improving lives, boosting the economy, and protecting the environment.
About the Farm
Mutana Hill is a picturesque coffee-growing region in northern Burundi, nestled between 2,100 and 2,200 meters above sea level. Home to over 1,500 smallholder farmers, this area is renowned for its fertile silty-sandy soils and a unique microclimate influenced by morning mists from the nearby Kibira Forest.
