Organic Fair Trade

Mexico FESICH Fair Trade Organic comes to us from El Federacion de Sociedades Cooperativas Indigenas y Ecologicas de Chiapas, F.C. de R.L. (FESICH). FESICH was founded in October of 2009 and represents 1,890 smallholder producers from the regions of Angel Albino Corzo, Capitán Luis Ángel Vidal, La Concordia, and Montecristo de Guerrero. These areas lie just east of El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve, between the mountain range Sierra Madre de Chiapas and the southernmost reservoir of the Angostura river. The reserve is an important refuge for endemic species (including several endangered mammals) as well as an important touchstone for bird migration. However, El Triunfo is notably the most diverse evergreen cloud forest in Mexico, which contributes to a tropical microclimate, ideal for coffee cultivation in these bordering regions.

Mexico FESICH Fairtrade Organic is sorted post-harvest, with only ripe cherries selected for pulping. Second, the coffee is fermented for 12-18 hours, then fully washed. Third, parchment is dried on concrete patios where it is carefully monitored until the coffee reaches uniform moisture content of 12%.

Region Angel Albino Corzo, Capitán Luis Ángel Vidal, La Concordia, Montecristo de Guerrero

Harvest Period December - May

More Details

Organic
Organic coffee is produced without synthetic chemicals, such as pesticides, herbicides, and artificial fertilizers. Instead, organic coffee farmers rely on natural and sustainable agricultural practices like crop rotation, composting, and biological pest control. To be labeled as organic, coffee must meet strict regulations and certification criteria set by governing bodies, such as the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) or the European Union (EU). Organic coffee not only supports environmental sustainability but may also offer health benefits, as it contains fewer chemical residues than conventionally grown coffee.
Fair trade
Fair-trade coffee refers to coffee beans that are produced, traded, and sold following a set of ethical and social standards designed to ensure fair treatment of farmers and workers in the coffee industry. Fair Trade organizations work to create a more equitable global trade model by prioritizing the well-being of small-scale coffee producers and farm workers, primarily in developing countries.
