Background: Honduras Kingdom Growers farmers have realized the need for high grade, specialty coffee and we have really loved the extra care that the Honduras Kingdom Growers have taken to ensure its quality. The farms generally range in size from 1 – 12 acres and are spread between elevations of 4,000 to 5,200 feet. The lots are handpicked and centrally processed to ensure ideal cup quality.

Honduras Kingdom Growers coop have been working to aid in the development of sustainable farming practices and to empower coffee-growing farmers, families and communities to adopt their own solutions. Founded in Siguatepeque and known to locals as “Cultivadores del Reino,” its mission seeks to provide technical guidance and assistance in order to increase productivity, improve cup quality, and promote interdependence. The Honduras Kingdom Growers coop also assists farmers with market access and advocates for farm-to-cup transparency to help deepen connections between farmers and consumers.
