COMPANY
Fara Coffee produces and exports shade-grown, hand picked gourmet coffee. We have been growing 100% SHG Arabica coffee beans on our family-owned farms in the mountainous rainforest of Matagalpa, Nicaragua for five generations.
MISSION
In 2004, Fara Coffee raised the bar for itself — with a proactive objective to have the most environmentally sensitive and socially responsible coffee fincas in all of Nicaragua. Through the Fara Foundation, we give 100% of our proceeds back to the people of Nicaragua in 4 main ways: healthcare, food assistance, education and eldercare. Furthermore, we prioritized Rainforest Alliance certification to reinforce our aim to conserve ecosystems by protecting healthy soils, rivers and wildlife and promote dignified living conditions for farm workers and neighboring rural communities.
