Jorge is a third-generation farmer and grew up visiting his grandpa’s and parents’ coffee farms. He studied to be a veterinarian in Guatemala and still works part-time as a vet in the capital city of Tegucigalpa.

Jorge and his wife Vanessa owned a smaller farm for several years; he bought Finca Tierra de Leyendas in 2011 with the dream of growing a large and successful coffee farm (Tierra de Leyendas translates to “Land of Legends”). At the time, half of the property had been stripped to be used for cattle grazing and planting sugar cane, so Jorge worked to replant trees throughout the farm and decided to plant coffee below half of the remaining forest and leave the other half as a protected reserve.

He loves growing coffee because it provides so much employment. He started with 5 full-time employees and now has 30 full-time employees and 120 pickers during the harvest. He is proud to pay better than most in the area and see how the lives of his employees have improved. He told me, ‘I know the homes of my employees, and I have seen how they have improved over the years. That is what makes it all worth it for him.

Jorge is a strong Christian and is very involved in the Great Commission church in Tegucigalpa and the Great Commission Foundation (https://grancomision.org/). He is currently on the leadership team for the church and oversees 8 discipleship groups.

Loving the world with good coffee

This is from my daughter Hallie whom I send coffee to in Virginia.
“What is better than my favorite pour-over flavorful coffee and helping the world? Nothing! Even though I’ve moved to Virginia, Redemption Road quickly and efficiently gets me their coffee. Out of all the choices I could buy, I choose RRC because they have quality coffee with a mission to love the world well.”

Thank you RRC, for having a reputation of good service and godly compassion.
