La Esperanza #2 - Colombia South 2006 Verified listing

History

I am a coffee grower per tradition. I work in the farm with my wife and my three children. I am entirely dedicated to my family and farm.

Environmental Care

I look for the preservation of flora and fauna in the farm. My farm is close to two sources of fresh water which all the family protect jealously. The depulping process is done without using water. I also use the pulp as organic fertilizer. 

Coffee Processing Information

I apply chemical and organic fertilizers to the soil twice per year. Pest control is done by cultural methods (re – re).
