Jeff from Sound Coffee is hosting a guided coffee tasting, with a discussion led by Lucia Bawot, local author of “We Belong: An Anthology of Colombian Women Coffee Farmers”!

Sound Coffee was formed by Jeff & Sarah Roy with the mission of providing coffee lovers with delicious fresh-roasted coffee produced with care and love for the product, for our planet, and for the farmers and communities who grow it for us. They are located at 2040 Main Street, Bridgeport, CT 06604.

We Belong is Lucia Bawot’s awarded debut book, a collection of intimate photography accompanied by short vignettes. This book is an artistic declaration that brings to light the life stories of 25 Colombian women coffee farmers and pickers. Through Bawot’s lens, the common, one-dimensional portrayal of a female coffee producer as just that—a woman toiling in a coffee field—is shattered, vividly revealing the full spectrum of their human experiences.
