Alea’s Farm Resilience Program is a transformative initiative focused on empowering the farming community in Bicol to build long-term resilience against natural disasters, especially super typhoons. As a social enterprise based in Bicol, Alea Chocolates recognizes the critical role agriculture plays in the region’s economy and the livelihoods of its people.

Our program is designed to support farm owners, farm leaders, and local farmers through expert-led training, sustainable farming practices, and resource provision. We partner closely with the Department of Agriculture and local organizations like Magel Golden Integrated Farm to deliver hands-on training on soil health, pest management, organic fertilizers, and farming tools. We also focus on strengthening soil against erosion and improving crop yields to ensure long-term farm productivity, stability, and economic resilience.

Alea Chocolates is proud to be recognized by the Department of Trade and Industry as Bicol’s Key Cacao Processor. Our success in the chocolate industry is deeply intertwined with the success of local farmers who provide the cacao and raw materials we use. By supporting the Alea Farm Resilience Program, you are directly contributing to the economic stability and future of Bicol’s farming community.

Donating to this program means helping to fortify Bicol’s farmlands, providing local farmers with the tools and skills they need to adapt to climate change, and ultimately creating a sustainable farming ecosystem. By empowering farmers to thrive despite challenges, we are strengthening the backbone of Bicol’s agriculture and economy.
