We’re ladies, but here we are working hard, producing, teaching, setting a good example. And, when people in the community are needy, we are glad to help out.

Mi esposa murió hace poco, hace siete meses. Le dió un derrame. <br />
<br />
Me dedico a hacer piedrín, a mano. Hay lugares donde lo hacen con maquina, lo hago yo a mano, manualmente. Lo vendo por metro, son 200 paladas en un metro y se vende en 200 Lempiras el metro. Es duro ganar ese dinero. Tengo 65 años. <br />

My wife died recently, seven months ago. She had a stroke.<br />
<br />
I work making gravel, by hand. There are places where they do it with machines, I do it by hand, manually. I sell it by the metre, there are 200 shovelfuls in a metre and it’s 200 Lempiras a metre. It’s hard to earn that money. I’m 65 years old.

  • An Andes Coop member pours red coffee berries into a manual depulping machine in a village near the town of Andes. While much of the depulping is still done by hand, or by small machines, the coop has invested millions to build a state-of-the-art processing mill that takes coffee in berries, instead of coffee processed by hand. This will allow the coop to closely control quality and improve profits by producing more high-quality coffee.
