ABOUT THE COFFEE AND THE FARMERS
In Guatemala, 70 children out of every 1,000 die before age 5; 51 of those children will not live to reach their first birthdays. There is only 1 doctor for every 85,000 people in the Western Highlands of Guatemala.

Nueva Granada is a verdant farm nestled between two of Guatemala’s tallest volcanoes. Beans grow high on mountainous slopes in soil made rich by volcanic ash, and ripen slowly late in the year.  The Nottebohm family has grown and traded coffee in Guatemala for well over a century.   Although Nueva Granada has always been a shade farm, since joining the Rainforest Alliance programme, the Nottebohms have planted an additional 30,000 shade trees — an improvement that has meant a noticeable increase in the number of butterflies, birds and small animals on the farm. The farm’s private primary school serves the children of the field hands with three full-time teachers.   This educational programme, along with a preventive health clinic, both exemplify the social standards required under Rainforest Alliance sustainable certification.
