Summary

"A Cafecito Story" is a story of love, coffee, birds and hope -- and an eco-fable. Based on her and her husband's experiences trying to reclaim a small coffee farm in her native Dominican Republic, this story shows how the return to the traditional methods of shade-grown coffee can rehabilitate and rejuvenate the landscape and human culture, while at the same time preserving vital winter habitat for threatened songbirds
