Shade and corridor

The surveyor signs, not the farm.

Wildlife-friendly coffee labels usually rest on a farm's own word, and buyers have no way to check shade cover or the forest corridor. Each lot here names its farm, canopy survey and corridor record, with every survey signed by an independent surveyor.
