HER Coffee is a new program by Hacea Coffee Source dedicated to amplifying the voices of women in coffee. While women contribute nearly 70% of the labor involved in growing, harvesting, and processing coffee, they often face significant barriers to accessing global markets. HER Coffee was created to change that by sourcing directly from women producers and bringing their coffees to roasters across the U.S. The program opens doors for producers to showcase their craft, gain recognition for the quality they deliver, and grow their presence in the specialty market.
