T O N A M I L is an initiative dedicated to supporting sustainable production and consumption of coffee in Mexico, Norway, and everywhere in the world where it is possible to reach in these modern times.
At the moment T O N A M I L is located in Norway and is focused on spreading social and environmental awareness based on scientific knowledge about coffee. We join and organize a variety of events, and our social media and blog are also meant to be reliable sources of information that support our mission.
From 2019 to 2024, we had a Fair-Trade project where we organized and practiced direct and ethical trade of ecological coffee from small-scale producers in Mexico. During that time, we offered the producers and their families the best possible prices for their coffee, and we also gave them economic advice so they could develop their business as direct suppliers to avoid the middleman prices and conditions. We bought and distributed more than 1,000 kg. of this ethical coffee from Mexico in Norway!
T O N A M I L means “maize from the sun” in the ancient Nahuatl language, and it is also the name of the winter agricultural season in the South of Mexico, where Indigenous farmers consider this season as a very powerful, meaningful and resilient activity: To be able to cultivate and harvest food in the coldest months of the wintertime.
