Future Cacao Farmers

Dominican Republic, Part I

In 2015, my partner and I traveled to the Dominican Republic to help document the positive impact of a corporate donation made by one of our clients, Experience Momentum, a 1% For The Planet company. This assignment took us to some small cacao farms in the remote interior jungles of the Dominican Republic where we photographed the sustainable agricultural efforts of some of the hardest working, most welcoming folks you’ll ever meet.
