The co-op consists of 530 producer members from 15 small communities in the provinces of Chanchamayo and Satipo, between 1,200 and 1,800 masl. These beautiful farms are rich in agricultural diversity, from shade-giving fruit trees including papaya, oranges and pineapple, to ground-covering vegetables such as peppers.

Parts of the farm are certified Organic and other parts are certified Organic Fairtrade. We offer both—please ask a trader for details!
