They make it all possible
Each farm and co-op tells the story of generations of knowledge and stewardship of the land.
Our commitment to sustainability begins at the source.
Every cup of our coffee is made possible by the dedicated farmers and co-ops we partner with, all of whom are (or are about to become) Regenerative Organic Certified®.
Our farmer-partners aren’t just suppliers, they’re stewards of the land, upholding agricultural practices that restore ecosystems, enrich soil health, and enhance biodiversity. The work they do directly impacts the local population and provides upward mobility and economic opportunity for the entire community.
By working directly with these farms, we ensure a transparent, traceable supply chain that empowers communities, preserves the environment, and delivers exceptional coffee.
Each of our farm partners brings expertise, passion, and unique story to the table, and we’re proud to share them with you.
Pacayal Cooperative
Regenerative Organic Certified®
Edgar Carrillo, alongside his sister Karen, embarked on a mission to transform the coffee landscape in Honduras when they founded Pacayal Coffee in 2013. In the wake of the devastating coffee leaf rust epidemic that swept across Latin America in 2012, their goal was clear: to help local producers rebuild and grow coffee that would showcase the incredible potential of Honduras. Since then, Pacayal Coffee has flourished.
Driven by relentless dedication and a passion for quality, Edgar and his family have elevated the caliber of their coffee year after year. Their commitment to innovation has not only enhanced their offerings but also captured the attention of roasters around the globe. Pacayal Cooperative is the first Regenerative Organic Certified® co-op in Honduras.
ASOPEP
Regenerative Organic Certified®
Founded in 2013, the Asociación de Productores Agropecuarios de Café Especial de Planadas (ASOPEP) may be a young organization, but it has quickly established itself as a leader in the region. With 275 members—more than any other association in Tolima—ASOPEP stands out as the only cooperative equipped with full coffee infrastructure, giving them complete control over processing, quality management, transportation, and commercialization.
Under the visionary leadership of General Manager Camilo Enciso, ASOPEP has transformed into a regional force. Enciso has been instrumental in forging partnerships between various cooperatives in Planadas, propelling the region into the spotlight at national coffee trade shows and events. In 2014, a group of young farmers, many leaving their hometown for the first time, traveled to Medellín to represent their region. Enciso’s commitment to expanding the visibility and potential of Planadas continues to shape the cooperative’s future.
FECCEF
Regenerative Organic Certified®
FECCEG (Federación Comercializadora de Café Especial de Guatemala) is a second-tier cooperative, uniting 12 base cooperatives that operate across six departments of Guatemala. Established in 2006, FECCEG was founded with a mission to create sustainable economic opportunities that improve the livelihoods of its members. By 2009, the cooperative had taken a major step forward by independently exporting their products.
Representing over 1,000 smallholder producers—one-third of whom are women—FECCEG’s members grow a diverse mix of coffee, honey, and sugar. They are proudly Regenerative Organic Certified®, which has allowed the cooperative to channel social premiums into vital community development projects. These initiatives have had a wide-reaching impact, from improving and expanding local schools to establishing a revolving loan fund for women.
Cooperativa Sacacli
Regenerative Organic Certified®
Founded on November 5, 1994, by 31 visionary members—including six women—SACACLI began its journey in Sacacli, San Rafael del Norte, Jinotega. Today, the cooperative has grown to encompass 500 members, with a strong focus on supporting small and medium-scale producers.
In 2008, SACACLI made its entry into the coffee industry with 22 members in the Pantasma municipality. By the 2017-2018 harvest season, the cooperative had expanded significantly, with members operating Fairtrade and Organic certified farms. In a groundbreaking achievement, SACACLI is the world’s first cooperative to produce Regenerative Organic Certified™ coffee, making their crop the first of its kind commercially available.
SACACLI’s certifications reflect their deep commitment to producing high-quality coffee while adhering to strict standards that protect the soil, environment, and communities.
Finca Churupampa
Regenerative Organic Certified®
For the Tocto brothers, Finca Churupampa is more than just a coffee farm—it’s a social enterprise with a mission to transform the economic and social landscape of Chirinos. In addition to producing coffee, the Toctos provide export and marketing services for 215 neighboring farmers, helping them reach broader markets. They also operate a training center open to the entire community, empowering farmers to improve production practices and break the cycle of poverty. As Peru’s first Regenerative Organic Certified™ cooperative, the farm sets a national standard for sustainable coffee farming.
The Toctos have continually reinvested in the farm’s infrastructure, focusing on quality control, upgrading equipment, and refining processing methods. Finca Churupampa’s commitment to regenerative organic practices extends beyond coffee—they grow organic vegetables, tropical fruits, and raise chickens for local consumption. With a focus on soil management, the brothers produce compost from local flora and create fertilizer pellets using leftover "miel" from their fermentation tanks. These regenerative efforts not only improve soil health but also help plants retain water, contributing to the farm's long-term sustainability.
KSU Arinagata
100 Organic Certified
KSU Arinagata began as a coffee trading and exporting company that worked with farmers from seven villages in Aceh province. In 2007, these farmers came together to officially form the cooperative. Situated at an altitude of 600 to 1,200 meters, the cooperative is composed mainly of traditional Gayonese farmers. Many faced immense challenges during the armed conflict between Sumatran separatists and the Indonesian army, with many being displaced and returning only recently, some as widows with little income. These families live under difficult conditions, relying heavily on their farming for survival.
The cooperative now has 1,677 members, including 206 women. Most members cultivate small plots of land, with coffee accounting for 80-90% of their household income. In addition to coffee, farmers often sell vegetables, fruits, soybeans, spices, and fish in local markets. Fruit trees are intercropped with their 100% organic coffee, contributing to the unique flavor profile of Sumatran coffee.
