About PROCAFE
PROCAFE (Productores de Café de Puerto Rico, Inc.) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded by local coffee growers in the wake of Hurricane María to defend their rights and rebuild Puerto Rico’s coffee sector sustainably. Today, we’re a leading voice in resilient agriculture, environmental conservation, and rural economic development. We’ve supported hundreds of farms, and spearheaded reforestation and carbon-capture initiatives across the island’s mountain regions. PROCAFE also runs educational and youth-development programs that connect students with nature. With a growing national recognition, we bridge farmers, forests, and Puerto Rico’s future.
Our Impact
PROCAFE empowers smallholder farmers and rural communities across Puerto Rico through a combination of environmental restoration, education, and economic resilience initiatives. We lead large-scale agroforestry efforts like Café del Futuro and Revive el Cafetal Puertorriqueño, distributing millions of trees and promoting sustainable land use. Our youth education initiative brings environmental leadership and conservation skills into schools, preparing the next generation to care for the island’s natural resources. Through the Fondo R.A.I.Z., we provide farmers with access to capital and technical assistance to rebuild and adapt to climate challenges. Semillas de Cambio and Plátanos para la Montaña subsidizes cash crop seeds to increase resilience and food security.
Across all our work, we focus on community-driven solutions that restore the land, strengthen livelihoods, and build a more resilient future for Puerto Rico
