I'm operating a cacau farm in the region of Bahia, Brazil and woulg like to exchange ideas and experiences with you. Your discussions on chocolayye life have been interesting and it's possible that some of our experiences could be mutually beneficial is shared. Drop me a lne at cacaufarmer@yahoo.com when you have a spare moment.
I am currently making changes to our farms to elevate the quality and efficiency and would appreciate hearing some of your thoughtd on fermentation batch sizes, ways to use new technology and farm management practices.
Best regards

Welcome to TheChocolateLife. I very much appreciate your diligence in working with the cacao farmers in the Beni region of Bolivia in and around Hacienda Tranquilidad to bring the beans that Felchlin uses to make Cru Sauvage to their attention. It is a remarkable chocolate and a remarkable story and I know everyone here would love to know more about your efforts on this and other Rainforest projects.
