Colombia Las Mingas

The Las Mingas Project (“for the good of all”) in Huila, Colombia promotes partnerships that bring growers and roasters together for direct discussion and exchange. The program focuses on quality by providing transparent pricing models for all involved.The Las Mingas program founders Alejandro Cadena and Giancarlo Ghiretti help farmers earn higher prices by teaching them how to raise the quality of their coffee. As part of the agreement, Cuvee Coffee commits to selling the harvest under the Las Mingas name which helps bring proper recognition to participating farmers, who in turn, commit to using part of their premium earnings to improve their local communities as they see fit
