While I do love coffee for the same reasons many others do, for me, it goes a bit deeper. After falling in love with Uganda and her people, I found that coffee could be a catalyst to change in Uganda. And quickly realized it didn’t need to end there.

So, join me, and love your coffee. -Joe

It’s always great to see a community plan. When there are plans, there’s typically hope within the community. They can see past current circumstances and are working towards goals for family and their community. When we walked into the coffee co-op in Las Nubes, Nicaragua, the president of the co-op showed us their plans to improve coffee production. We were told that by improving coffee production, they will improve their living conditions and education. Three Avocados is proud to be part of their plan for a better community. Here’s part of their plan on paper.
