About the Growers:

Lempira is a department in western Honduras with secluded, rugged landscapes, including the tallest peak in Honduras, Cerro Las Minas. The department was named Gracias until 1943 and was used as an administrative center for Spaniards during colonial times. It was renamed Lempira for the Lenca cheiftan of the same name who fought the Spanish conquistadores in the 16th century. In pre-colonial periods, Lenca controlled a large territory that extended from Guatemala to present-day El Salvador in the region of the Lempa river. During the Spanish invasion, the Lenca organized a decade-long war of resistance led by the warrior chief Lempira (after whom the national currency of present-day Honduras is named).

The town of Erandique, Lempira is surrounded by pine and sweetgum forests. It serves as a coffee and grain collection and processing point for the higher-elevation villages in the area. It is also well known for its opal mines.
