The Farmer\u2019s Voice is a collaborative project created to give space, visibility, and recognition to the farmers whose knowledge sustains one of the world\u2019s most precious crops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This initiative brings together smallholder farmers from the Sierra Madre de Soconusco, in the municipality of Tuzant\u00e1n, Chiapas, alongside Vanilla-Trade and the University of Leicester. The project aims to document and share farmers\u2019 lived experiences, practical knowledge, and deep connection to the land \u2014 directly from the field, in their own words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The legacy of these farmers is not only agricultural, but cultural. It is a living combination of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Respect for the land<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Traditional and regenerative farming practices<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Strong work ethics passed down through generations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Conservation, resilience, and innovation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These values are essential tools for building a sustainable future for vanilla cultivation. By creating a platform where farmers can share their voices, we help ensure that this knowledge is not lost, but passed on to future generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Farmer\u2019s Voice is more than a video project \u2014 it is a commitment to social engagement, ethical sourcing, and true origin transparency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"787\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/meet-the-farm-er-1024-copy-787x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1796\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.7685862704574652;width:170px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/meet-the-farm-er-1024-copy-787x1024.jpeg 787w, https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/meet-the-farm-er-1024-copy-231x300.jpeg 231w, https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/meet-the-farm-er-1024-copy-768x999.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/meet-the-farm-er-1024-copy-9x12.jpeg 9w, https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/meet-the-farm-er-1024-copy-600x780.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/meet-the-farm-er-1024-copy.jpeg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 787px) 100vw, 787px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch the videos and listen to the voices behind Mexican vanilla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"La voz del productor: The farmers voice: Episode 3 ,Entrevista Vicente Matias\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6Oc-opZvZNw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>#MakeADifference #MexicanVanilla #OriginVanilla #TheFarmersVoice #UniversityOfLeicester #MariaTouri #VanillaTrade #SocialEngagement #SmallFarmers #Mexico<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Farmer\u2019s Voice is a collaborative project created to give space, visibility, and recognition to the farmers whose knowledge sustains one of the world\u2019s most precious crops.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1798,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[87],"tags":[92,94,89,90,93,91],"class_list":["post-1792","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-meet-the-farm-er","tag-diestimmederproduzenten","tag-kleinbauern","tag-makeadifference","tag-mexikanischevanille","tag-sozialesengagement","tag-ursprungsvanille"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1792","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1792"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1792\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1798"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1792"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1792"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eu.vanilla-trade.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1792"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
