Just like last year, this year, too, we had a HARVEST CLOSING AND THANKSGIVING CEREMONY at our fincas. We had a short time to reflect and give thanks for the work we have: leader farmers also received bonuses.

Then Ecafe’s staff, farmers, and Ichthus’ staff, we all enjoyed a tasty Barbacoa.

After that, we gave hats and uniform t-shirts to all of those who worked at the farms during the harvest.

Clothes and toys that people supporting us have donated were given to kids on that day, too.

We know it is not easy to hand-pick coffee in the steep mountains and hot weather of Chiapas, and we appreciate their work. Although, as the majority of coffee producers, Ecafe Chiapas has been facing some challenges to increase our production, we are pretty grateful to be able to produce coffee.

Also, we are thankful to all those who work with us, from production to administration and very specially to those who support us and buy our coffees, you guys are the best!
