Renacimiento Co-op has 68 female members who work together, and produce approximately 300 bags per harvest. 8 of these members are employed full time by the Co-op to look after the drying patio, help with growing, harvesting, processing and also to maintain and grow the communal organic fertiliser stock.

All the coffee on these farms is shade grown alongside bananas, and the women of the co-op have a bee keeping program where they produce honey for export. Their mix of caturra and catuai produces some prominent sweetness; strong toffee and malt character upfront opens to inviting strawberry and apricot as it cools.
