Coffee Community Resources
Information Is Power.
Our vision is that Jamaican women in coffee (or anyone) can learn new ideas here and go on with confidence to explore topics of interest more deeply elsewhere, becoming empowered to ask harder questions and find the answers to real problems in their everyday lives.
This project is just getting started, so if you have something to contribute to our resource library, or if there is any specific info you’re seeking, please let us know!
