Producer Story:
5 years ago it was just pasture for cattle. With the planting of coffee, timber and fruit trees, bananas, among others, were also planted, creating a diversified production system. In addition, an irrigation system was installed and electricity was brought to the farm. Currently on the farm there is a diversity of flora and fauna that had been lost with the grasslands. With the nature-friendly practices that it develops in cultivation, the arrival of wild animals typical of the area is now observed, which on the farm find their refuge.
5 varieties are grown: Geisha, Villalobos, Caturra, Catuai and Rubí
