Chiapas officially the Free and Sovereign State of Chiapas is one of the states that make up the 32 federal entities of Mexico. ABOUT THE PRODUCER This is a fair trade, Organic certified coffee produced by the coop Union Maya Vinic, an organization comprised of indigenous farmers located in the highland communities of Chenalhó, Pantelhó, and Chalchihuitán, in Chiapas, Mexico. Inspired by the traditions of their ancestors, Maya Vinic operates with a respect for local language and culture, and a reverence for Mother Earth and traditional forms of self government. The founding members of Maya Vinic come out of the base organization "Las Abejas," a network of Liberation Theology catechists in the region. They envisioned the cooperative in the aftermath of the 1997 Acteal massacre, where 45 of their members were caught in the political crossfire of the era. The day of their funeral, survivors and sympathizers arrived, each carrying a brick that would be used to build a mausoleum to commemorate their dead. Yet it wasn’t until three years later, with the birth of Maya Vinic that they were able to create the foundation for new life in the community. These members worked hard, organizing, training, reclaiming the land, composting, pruning, and communicating internally and externally (for a fair market), all in search of a better life than the one they had just left. Striving to offer consistently high-quality coffee, raised with care and respect for their natural resources, the coop offers its producer members regular educational and capacity-building activities focused on sustainable farming techniques and the importance of a strong social economy. As a collective initiative to improve the living situations of their farmers, Maya Vinic understands that in addition to producing great coffee for our roaster members, they must also provide even greater economic benefit to their producers.
