About the farmer:
Abelina decided years ago to produce coffee because, although she never thought it would make her rich, she knew it would bring her more opportunities.
She loves producing coffee in Lucmamba, Cusco, and will do anything to work with it. Her typical day starts at 3 am and her farm is one of the steepest on the ‘Beecause we Care project’. Most people would find it a challenge to work on her farm, but Abelina does it while laughing and cracking jokes.
Beecause we Care 365 is an environmental and community development organization based in Cusco, Peru. Led by Svetlana, they empower local families to thrive through sustainable environmental practices. This is important because people from these communities are extremely vulnerable due to environmental, economic, and social challenges.
Beecause we Care 365 empowers local families and protects the environment through:
– Education on the benefits of preserving organic farming.
– Re-introducing bee colonies locally.
– Education and support with specialty coffee production.
– Supporting shared labour practices.
– Producing food for the community.
– Housing stray dogs.
– Emotional support for victims of domestic violence.
