FARMERS HELPING FARMERS
Five farms joined together to form the Farmers Project.
HOW WE STARTED
Farmers Project was founded by Jonathan Jost and Marianella Baez Jost of Café Con Amor. When they gave up their corporate jobs to follow their passion as coffee farmers in Costa Rica, they were struck by how hard local farmers worked, only to sell their coffee for prices that could not sustain the most basic lifestyle.
The Farmers Project was started to help local farmers in Costa Rica sell their coffee for a fair price to support their workers, their farms, and their families. Sharing this vision, farmers could learn from one another, share best practices, and export their specialty coffee together.
OUR MISSION
To cultivate quality coffee using sustainable practices and to establish long-term relationships with buying partners who believe in doing business with integrity and fairness in mind.

Want to connect with origin?
We are a group of Farmers exporting and selling our own specialty coffee.
We grow it, we mill it, we export it. We believe in connecting with our customers, because coffee is about relationships.
