Founded in 2006, La Grama is a Peruvian company that works with small-scale growers in communities from all over Peru including the Amazon rainforest, the Andean highlands and the desert coast. Their community of farmers is best known for ginger which is planted, harvested, and packed in the Peruvian Amazon rainforest. Here the soil and climate allow them to grow some of the freshest organic yellow ginger. Working with marginalized small scale growers, La Grama has been able to provide benefits to their workers that they've never previously had access to – overtime, social benefits, severances, compensations, health insurance, and retirement pension funds. Fair trade, small scale, and high quality. That is what La Grama is all about, and you can taste the difference.
