As we kicked-off National Co-op Month, we had the honor of celebrating the newest inductees into the annual Cooperative Hall of Fame with the Cooperative Development Foundation , where Frontier Co-op’s own CEO Tony Bedard was selected alongside four incredible cooperative leaders for their contributions in support of the cooperative model. This year marked the 50th anniversary of the Cooperative Hall of Fame, which honors the stories of people who have dedicated their lives to ensuring that cooperatives and the entire movement are building a more inclusive economy for all.

"Under the OSPP project, we achieved the highest harvest yield for our own land. This success highlights the effectiveness of our strategies and practices in maximizing crop productivity." As we close out our series spotlighting the smallholder farmer stories from our SPICE project in partnership with USAID Cooperative Development Program, we're featuring our partnership with the Small Organic Farmers’ Association (SOFA), an association of over 3,500 spice, tea, coconut and herb farmers in Sri Lanka’s Central Province. This project helped to conduct agricultural extension trainings essential for helping farmers utilize best practices for farming, handling and processing. Over a thousand farmers have benefited from the trainings and agricultural support seeing improvement in their crop yields.

"We have seen the cooperative model as a tool for how we, as individuals can develop our abilities and qualities as people." As part of our series to spotlight smallholder farmer stories from our SPICE project in partnership with USAID Cooperative Development Program, this week we're excited to feature our partnership with Fedecovera RL , one of our long-term sourcing partners and cooperative representing 33,000 organic cardamom, allspice and turmeric farming families in Guatemala. This project helped to build their capacity to include steam pasteurization and improving their internal processes, operational controls, and good handling practices with the goal of increasing the price obtained for their crops, and provided social, economic and agricultural benefits to its cooperative members and their families.

🎉 Celebrating Impact: Highlights from our inaugural Doing Good, Works Event! Last week, we had the honor of hosting an inspiring group of leaders and changemakers at Frontier Co-op's inaugural "Doing Good, Works" celebration. Together with our incredible partners—retailers, community nonprofits, global business development allies, and Frontier Co-op employees and board members — we celebrated our co-op’s commitment to creating positive change in the lives we touch. This event was focused around our three purpose pillars, with powerful stories shared by our partners working on the ground to drive impact within our walls, in our communities, and at source in our origin communities worldwide. We’re so grateful to everyone who made this event possible and to all our partners for their unwavering commitment to making a difference. We proud to be part of a cooperative community who proves that doing good, works.

“The future of tea in Champawat looks the brightest. With all our farmers joining, with the best raw material possible, with our partners Frontier Co-op, USAID and Young Mountain Tea… I think the sky’s the limit.” As part of our series to spotlight smallholder farmer stories from our SPICE project in partnership with USAID Cooperative Development Program, we’re excited to feature our partnership with Young Mountain Tea (YMT), a valued tea trading partner, to establish the first farmer-owned tea processing facility in the Himalayan region of Kumaon — where 90% of its smallholder farmers are women. Through this project, the first facility will benefit 500 farmers in the community, and with the potential expansion, the model could benefit up to 6,000 farmers. This project not only drives gender-diverse entrepreneurship and economic growth but also improves soil health and combats the local effects of climate change. As we lead into National Co-op Month, join us each week in celebrating these milestones and learn more about our journey with Kumaon tea farmers at https://lnkd.in/emrnwXMZ Raj Vable #sustainableagriculture #climateaction #communitygrowth #FrontierCoop #YoungMountainTea #doinggoodworks
