Our team is made of families who have been devoted to the production of specialty coffee for over four generations. Along the years, we have built an amazing and driven team, which we treasure and love . We appreciate and acknowledge the effort of our people and that is why we are continuously looking for ways to help them and their families. Here you can read a little bit about what we currently do:

KIDS SUMMER PROGRAM

This program was created for the farm workers’ children. It consists of daily itineraries filled with activities, guest speakers, projects, and excursions. The kids have the opportunity to attend this program while they are on vacation from school. It is a time for them to have fun, learn, travel, and make new friends.

WOMEN EMPOWERMENT COURSES

We believe that the most powerful tool for women is independence. All girls and moms are welcome in these workshops where they learn new abilities like sewing, cooking, fantasy jewelry making, and more. These skills can give them the opportunity to have better jobs or create a small business of their own by selling the products they make in the course.

CARRIZAL SCHOOL

The location of this school is in one of our farms located in the northwestern part of Guatemala, called Carrizal. This is one of the most remote areas of the country where resources are very limited. Thanks to our friends from Bean Around the World, Carrizal School was created in 2008 . Every year, new additions, renovations, and better quality learning systems are incorporated into the school. The most recent one is a computer lab, where 25 computers were donated by some of our dear friends from Health for Humanity.

ECOFILTER PROGRAM

Clean water is essential for the health of our people. In Guatemala, our tap water is not clean or filtered and unfortunately, people with limited resources are not able to invest in bottled water. Ecofilters, ceramic and plastic filters created in Guatemala, are a way for families to access clean water. That is why we introduced the Ecofilters financing program, in which a worker pays half of the Ecofilter and the farm pays the other half.

RUNNERS SUPPORT

We believe that staying active and exercising is one of the most important things for a healthy body and mind. That is why we support a group of runners by lending our installations for their weekly trainings and resistance tests. We also provide them sports drinks, nutrition products, and hydrating implements.
