These small hold farmers consist of 27% women, 50% are certified organic and 100% certified fair trade. The majority of the members are located in the northern 3 departments of: Estelí, Madriz and Nueva Segovias. Most farms growing altitude range from 1,200 – 1,500 meters above sea level, and farmers work with the varietals Caturra & Bourbon.
