Every year, the Caribbean island of Grenada hosts their annual Chocolate Festival. 2019 will be the 6 th year of an event that was started by Magdalena Fielden, a native Mexican who came to the island to raise her family and run a resort hotel. She moved to Grenada at almost the same time that Mott Green started working on the Grenada Chocolate Company – an initiative that has changed the face of Cacao farming on the island. Bean to bar artisan chocolate production means that the farmers make a good living by cultivating cacao – and the chocolate festival is all about celebrating that. With tours of cacao plantations, of the companies producing chocolate on the island (there are now 6 bean to bar producers) and with special events including rum and chocolate tastings at sea, ‘be a cacao farmer for the day’ events and more, it’s a great time to get into a party vibe AND enjoy some of the best chocolate in the world.
