Coffee Silo

During the harvest season (August to December), the local farmers all bring their harvests to this storage barn where the company that buys their beans comes with a truck every couple of days to pick it up. They sell exclusively to Nestle who guarentees a minimum price and has an active enviromental program to assure sustainability. However, they have no workers' rights provision or organization to assure that the workers are treated fairly and according to Costa Rica law or international standards.
