Producer: Cosmic Garden Coffee X Café de Mujeres Women's Coffee
Rosalba Cifuentes Tovia, founder of Mayan Harvest Coffee, works with producers who are family and neighbors in the town of Bella Vista in order to improve their harvesting and processing practices and in return get more competitive prices for their coffee. Rosalba works tirelessly to provide a livelihood to its members by providing them with medical and dental assistance. Her organization has grown to be around 100 producers, about 60 of which are women.
She has intentionally divided her production into three coffee groups. Women’s Coffee or «Cafe de Mujeres» is a group of women farmers that reside in the municipality of Bella Vista. This sector is in the regions of La Rinconada, El Progreso, Union Progreso and Barrio Montana communities. Rosalba expressed that in the area, there is a lot of «machismo», male chauvinism, and sadly this results in women being isolated. With this project in mind, she hopes to improve the image of the women producers by promoting their work.
