Woo-hoo! Baskets from El Sauce at my photo exhibit.
They can be difficult to come by, but I’m
proud to announce that thanks to Kingdom Ventures, the fair trade crafts seller who is a regular Fuente de Pino buyer, we will have an assortment of baskets handmade by the women of El Sauce for sale at my photo exhibit reception this Friday, May 6.
All profits go to El Sauce improvement projects.
In the past, that has included
• Purchase of a portable coffee bag sealer so the eco-tourism cooperative members (who are also organic coffee growers) can self bag some of their wares to sell to visitors, eliminating a costly middleman.
• Supplies for the eco-tourism cooperative to complete their 40-foot well, which will provide fresh water to the guest house/area and that they are digging by hand.
• Scholarhips for eight high school students
If you’re in the Rochester, N.Y., come on out:
