Coffee for a Cause
In 2022, one of the producers we source from unfortunately suffered grave disaster due to wide spread heavy rains in the remote mountain Village of San José in Amagá Antioquia in Colombia. As a result, one of the roads was effected, commonly used to transport coffee and other products produced on the farm that are normally sold in town, washing out several sections of the road. This road services the town of 200 families that no longer has direct access to the main road for common household resources including food and getting to/from school
That being said, Yolima with Paisa Coffee LLC is on a mission to bring the road back to life by raising money through her gofundme campaign. To learn more visit our social media page where you can find the link to learn more about this project!
Portion of the proceeds for purchasing this coffee will go directly to the gofundme to help get Yolima and our producers the resources they need. This coffee was sourced directly from Yolima with Paisa Coffee LLC in collaboration to benefit the Village of San Jose road repair fundraiser. Your support is greatly appreciated!

Meet the Farmer
John Jairo Rojas first farm was given to him by his father when he was 15 years old in 1982. He planted 500 trees and since then started his career as a coffee producer, taking care of everything himself and basing every decision on all of the knowledge his father had passed to him until that time.
In 1993 John got married to Sonia Granados, his current wife and together they grew their farm to 4,000 trees in 1998 and then 7,000 more a few years later. In 1995 they had their firs child named Camilo and in 1999 they had a daughter whom they named Ana Maria. Today The Rojas Granados family has a plantation of 18,000 trees located to an altitude of 1,900 meters above sea level. Thanks to their many years of experience, hard work, and the advantage of having a healthy and rich soil, the Rojas Granados family can porduce this amazingly complex and flavodful coffee.
