Coffee Background

Colombia Huila San Agustin Grainpro is sourced from family-owned farms organized around Proyecto San Agustín, a selection of 35 producers who live in the community of San Francisco within the municipality of Pitalito in the department of Huila, Colombia. Proyecto San Agustín was established in 2016 to focus on quality coffee production and to establish direct trade relationships. Proyecto San Agustín works in collaboration with an export company called Lohas Beans to establish connections in the specialty coffee market, which has improved coffee prices for its members and enables farmers to reinvest in their farms and provide for their families. Lohas Beans has also helped producers gain access to technical support for best agricultural practices and innovative coffee processing methods.
