SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES
WE STRONGLY BELIEVE IN FOLLOWING SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURAL PRACTICES FOR OUR PARTNER FARMS IN COLOMBIA AND ECUADOR.
Our practices actively protect our partner farms workers’ health and minimize agrochemical use to keep soil and waterways clean.
Our partner farm greenhouse designs enable us to harvest and utilize rainwater to irrigate our plants and treat our flowers.
Our partner farm drip irrigation systems have many benefits, such as being ecologically sound, promoting a healthier flower, and reducing pests, weeds, and harmful fungal growth.
It is estimated that 80% of the water our partner farms use for our flowers comes from rainwater reservoirs, minimizing the need to use water from rivers or wells.
TAKING CARE OF OUR PARTNERS
WE VIEW OUR PARTNER FARM EMPLOYEES AS OUR MOST VALUABLE ASSET
Rio’s partner farms employ over a thousand people.
Our partner farms provide nurseries to support single mothers, who account for 80% of the total workforce.
Through our partner farms, we provide programs such as family planning, education, drug abuse prevention, and chemical management.
