The Okapa Connections follows the journey of a shipment of coffee, as it makes its way from bush to brew. Starting life as a ripe red cherry, the coffee must pass through many hands and travel many miles by some unusual means so it can find its way to being a cup of hot coffee. The Okapa Connection reveals how fair trade and organic production methods are beginning to transform the lives of the coffee farmers in the remote and beautiful mountains of PNG.
