With her own farm, she made the decision to start producing high quality coffee because of the aggregated value and having her coffee recognized worldwide. Astrid has seen how the quality of life of her family has improved and at the same time of the people she employees to work at the farm. She is proud of being able to hire people, to give them opportunities, because as she remembers from starting in this business of high-quality coffee many people told her it was really hard but know a days, with hard work, she has been able to make it and at the same time help others.
The next steps for her farm, is planting more varieties and building new infrastructure for the workers she employees. Astris wants to thank you for the support and for buying coffee from coffee farmers as herself.
