Located in the picturesque surroundings of Rodríguez de Mendoza in the Amazonas region of Peru, the Valle Verde cooperative was founded in 2016 with the aim of producing sustainable coffee that respects the environment and the people. Valle Verde Cooperative has 483 active producers and 1,055 hectares of coffee planted, producing 50-55 coffee containers yearly.
One of the most inspiring aspects of Valle Verde’s initiatives lies in its focus on youth and women’s development projects. The cooperative prioritizes gender equality, with 35% of its farmers being women, and has a women’s committee that provides training and support to female farmers. The coffee is grown at altitudes of 1,520 to 1,820 meters above sea level, and while the harvest season is all year long, this peaks from April to October.
Improving Community and Quality Noteworthy is Valle Verde’s collaboration with the MOCCA project (Maximizing Opportunities in Coffee and Cacao in the Americas), a partnership with non-profit organization Technoserve. This joint effort focuses on improving quality through technology and financial progress, further enhancing the cooperative’s impact. In conclusion, Valle Verde’s dedication to the region’s well-being through qualitycentric practices is evident. By emphasizing both coffee and local produce, the community aspires to uplift living standards. With a peak in
productivity on the horizon, Valle Verde is driven by a passion for positive change.
