Aldea Development Honduras Staff Members Non-profit coffee and community development organization
Over the last couple of weeks, we’ve been giving you glimpses into the coffee harvest season in Honduras and introducing you to the work Aldea Development does.
Today, we want to introduce you to our staff in Honduras. We invite you to get to know our team, and hope to show you the way they contribute to making Aldea who we are! 
Each team member of our Honduras team has sent over an introduction, so you can get to know them, and their roles.
