Liberation does not sell Brazil nuts yet under our brand name but if you buy Tesco Fairtrade Brazil nuts then there is a large chance they came through Liberation from COINACAPA. COINACAPA has been exporting all of their produce to the Fairtrade market since 2004 when they obtained Fairtrade and organic certification. Brazil nut gathering is the primary cash crop of the members. In this Video Casildo talks about the dangers of Brazil nut gathering, his worries for the future of the Amazon rainforest and what it means to be part of Liberation.
