Origin Trip #2: Itinerary
Dates & Details to be confirmed!
Let’s take a look at last year’s trip!
“Visiting Honduras with Cima last year was an amazing and life changing experience. Not only did it shorten the relational distance between the coffee we purchase and the place it comes from, but it gave me more of an appreciation for the hard work and commitment to excellence that many of our producer partners have.
While this trip provides the opportunity to practice ethical buying practices and taste amazing coffee, what impacted me the most was that I also begin to cultivate real relationships over meals and drinks with the people behind the coffee.”
We will organize all meals, accommodation, and transportation during the trip and invoice the expenses to make the experience as seamless as possible for you. The estimated cost will range from $80 to $150 per day.
