Huehuetenango, Guatemala

Like our other Guatemalan coffees, Flor de Cafe is produced by a cooperative of indigenous Mayan farmers. By working cooperatively and securing access to the specialty market, they have been able to get much higher prices for their coffees than previously available, and have reinvested it into their farms and community. Their quality of life has drastically improved, with many of the men able to remain home all year, rather than traveling north to perform migrant labor in the US to supplement their farming income.
