Grupo Vicente Guerrero (Proyecto de Desarrollo Rural Integral Vicente Guerrero A.C.) is a peasant organisation in the Vicente Guerrero community of Españita, Tlaxcala. It keeps Native Seed Funds in Mexican communities, trains campesino promoters farmer to farmer, and pushed for Tlaxcala's native maize protection law. Each year it hosts the Feria del Maíz y Otras Semillas Nativas, now in its 28th edition.
