COOPERATIVA AGRARIA BIODINÁMICA SABORES DEL BOSQUE

The project works in collaboration with the Sabores del Bosque Biodynamic Agrarian Cooperative and its community of 655 producer families in the southern Alto Mayo, in the provinces of Moyobamba, Lamas and Rioja. Most of these families are migrants from the highlands of Peru, and the goal is to support their sustainable production of coffee and cocoa in a fair and equitable manner. Technical, environmental and social requirements are established to select the families participating in the project, ensuring the participation of women and the fulfillment of certain family requirements, such as the education of their children. This will build a more sustainable and prosperous future for all the families involved in this project.
