The Story

Since joining the Café Femenino program, the women farmers of Union Corcasan have increased their income, their ability to organize, and their leadership opportunities. Together they work to strengthen their coffee farms – the economical heart of their community – by combating coffee rust and replanting new coffee trees. With much work the group has obtained economic autonomy and developed educational tools needed to rise up from generations of ingrained societal and psychological oppression.
