These producers come from two townships: Siberia and San Pedro which are located in the municipality of Ciénaga. The region has been subject to extreme conflict from leftist and right wing groups during decades of political instability and drug-based violence, given the isolation of the terrain. The majority of these producers are recognized victims of armed conflict and are in a program for land restitution. Despite these threats and challenges, they have regained their land, and decided to put it to good use and produce high-quality organic coffee. About me:Since 2004 I have been a home coffee-roasting enthusiast, always in search of high-quality, socially-responsible, and environmentally-sustainable green coffee beans. I discovered the best way to do this is nurture relationships with importers who care as much about ethical coffee as I do and to rely on their on-the-ground knowledge of coffee farms around the world. So in 2008, I started buying green coffee in quantity and reselling to home coffee roasters like myself. This little side business has brought me great satisfaction, as I now have ready access to an outstanding variety of coffee myself, and I have helped many other home roasters (even a few micro-roasting businesses) get great coffee for great prices. My guiding principles:All my coffee is grown by farms that pay fair wages, use sustainable agricultural practices, and improve their community. I've traveled to coffee-producing regions, and seen how people live. Growing coffee can and should improve people's lives and respect God's creation. Through my importer, I have direct knowledge of where the coffee comes from, and how that farm operates. I share that information with you here.Buy it fresh, sell it fresh. I buy only from the current crop year, and move it from warehouse to my house to your house as fast as possible.Keep prices low. I'm not in it for the money. I have a full-time job, and this isn't it.Provide prompt and personal customer service. I'll try to answer any questions, and give advice to start-up roasters if you want it.Returns:If you don't get the coffee you ordered, or you found it defective or damaged during shipping, I will gladly offer you a full refund or replacement within 14 days, provided you return the entire defective order. However, since coffee quality is a matter of personal taste, and a great coffee can easily be spoiled by mistakes in roasting, please don't ask for a refund if you just don't like the flavor of the coffee after you roasted it. But rest assured! I don't sell any coffee beans that I haven't roasted myself, brewed, consumed, and greatly enjoyed.
