About the farmers: “This cooperative is comprised of all indigenous people, that are native to the land on the edge of the Andes mountains, and bordering the Rainforest and Jungle of the Amazon. The land next to their farms is government protected land, and the indigenous groups have decided to treat their land as if it were protected as well. Most of which have already been certified Smithsonian Bird Friendly, and all of which have been certified Organic. Cafe Kreyol (Sugarfuse’s purveyor) was connected to these groups through FECAFEB, who is a female owned not for profit located in La Paz. FECAFEB has the goal of increasing the quality of Bolivian coffee overall, and connecting suppliers to buyers throughout the world. FECAFEB has organized and managed tournaments in Bolivia, such as the Cup of Excellence. Cafe Kreyol had the honor of serving on the international jury for that event in 2016 and 2018.” ~ Cafe Kreyol
