Organic Colombian Fondo Paez Medium

Description

The Fondo Paez co-o largely represents Colombia’s main indigenous group, the Nasa (meaning “the people”).

Caught in the middle of an ongoing civil war, the farmers of Fondo Paez are committed to nonviolence and remain neutral as the conflict continues sporadically throughout their land. Their struggle for peace guides these farmers as they work to retain their ancestral farming practices. In addition to cultivating coffee, the  farmers collect seeds and cultivate native beans and corn to provide a healthy diet for their families.
