ASPROCDEGUA
Asociación de Productores de Café Diferenciados y Especiales de
Guatemala (ASPROCDEGUA) is a producing organization with 664
contributing members, the women of whom have separated out
some of their coffee to make this Women Coffee Producers offering.
The producing members own small farms, an average of 2 hectares
each, on which they plant coffee as well as other crops for
diversification, including bananas, citrus fruit like oranges and
lemons, avocado, guava, and cassava. The organization offers its
members access to technical assistance and routinely provides
services such as soil analysis, test farms, and social projects based
on food security, education, and nutrition.
ASPROCDEGUA was founded by a master cupper named Noe
Quintero, with whom our green-coffee buyer Piero Cristiani has
worked since his first year on the sourcing team.
The organization offers its members access to technical assistance
and routinely provides services such as soil analysis, test farms, and
social projects based on food security, education, and nutrition. The
smallholders of ASPROCDEGUA are from several different
municipalities within the area, including San Marcos, Cuilco,
Colotenango, Santa Bárbara, San Sebastián Huehuetenango,
Sipacapa, San Antonio Huisa, Cantinil Union, San Pedro Necta, Todos
Santos, and Concepción Huista.
