La Armonia Hermosa coffee farm visit

Les Stoneham is on his way down to Guatemala later this week to continue his work with the coffee farmers in Santa Maria de Jesus. This is the community from which we get our wonderful La Armonia Hermosa coffee.

He and a group of volunteers from Cincinnati will be meeting the coffee farmers and their families and working on construction projects in the village for the next two weeks. It should be a great trip! Please check for updates on their website.

Les has just recently created a non-profit called Deeper Roots Development which will allow the La Armonia Hermosa cooperative and future projects better access to funding and organization. With this exciting new venture, Deeper Roots is looking for people interested in investing in the farmers through micro-loans to fund the construction of a much needed beneficio (processing plant) that will enable the farmers to process their own crop and receive more income. The interest on these loans will be paid back in the form of fresh La Armonia Hermosa Coffee!

If you are interested in learning more about this or about going down and visiting the farmers please contact les@laarmoniahermosa.com
