“If I sell my coffee to the coyotes I don’t get any other benefit than in the moment I sell my coffee to them. As a member of ANEI, I can also gain extra benefits for my community.”

“I’ve had some financial help from ANEI which has allowed me to improve my coffee production. I used to have a small wooden box in which to wash and ferment my coffee. I’d often have to pulp my coffee, and then put it into bags until more space would become available and I could start it fermenting properly. My coffee quality has definitely improved as a result.”

“With the time I now save processing my coffee, I can pay more attention to ensuring that my coffee dries properly, and can do more work on the rest of my farm.”

“We’ve had other benefits through ANEI, including the piping of water to the local school. We’ve also started a chicken farm, to provide eggs and meat for the community.”
