It all started with a outing to Mexico.
“First time we was in Mexico we was operative in tellurian rights in Chiapas,” pronounced Director of Higher Grounds, Chris Treter.
And a fatal assembly with Jose, a coffee farmer, that would change Chris’ life.
“He’s somebody that is intensely intelligent though has an 8th class education, who’s a tough workman that wants to stay during home with his family though doesn’t have entrance to work other than his coffee and is somebody really spiritual yet he lives in one of a many ravaged places in a world,” pronounced Chris.
Working object adult to object down — usually to safeguard food for his family.
In Chris, it sparked an idea.
Fast brazen 15 years and here we are today. At Higher Grounds.
Coffee is alien from Honduras, Mexico, Venezuela, Nicaragua and about 10 other countries as well.
“I’ve selected my time and where to work in some of a many moving places in a world,” he said. “For example, in Chiapas is where a Indigenous people have risen adult in a pacific approach in sequence to finish mercantile and racial oppression.”
He’s grown not usually clever business relations with Jose and a other farmers, though clever personal relationships, too.
Calling any other adult usually to hear about one another’s day and how their families are doing.
“It’s developed into a most deeper than usually a business attribute and that’s what aloft drift was founded on — we wish to lower those relations both during home and also abroad,” pronounced Chris.
Because aloft ground–after all–means some-more than usually a coffee shop.
“Connecting those communities around a common bond that is amiability and creation a universe a improved place is something we are really ardent about.”
