Producer Story:
This equatorial region was formed by eras of volcanic activity,
and the soil is extremely fertile. Providing dense cover on the
hillsides, the forests around Bundibugyo support a hugely diverse
habitat for native plants and animals.
We’ve supported this progressive farmer group in their
mission to empower women farmers, and alongside our standard offer,
can provide you the option to select cacao 100% grown of farms
owned and run by women. The extra premium you pay goes directly
back to the women farmers for reinvestment in their future.
