Overview
From the year 1980, my dad helped me buy the farm. I was a small lot
and with great efforts I’ve been able to gradually increase the area of
the farm. During the years 1982 and 1987 the farm was abandoned because
of the war, there were heavy combats in the area.
Three generations (my grandfather, my father and now me) have dedicated
our lives to the coffee production.
I think that the dedication of the 100% of the time to cultivation of
coffee, the good care of the coffee trees, the water, the soil as well as
the love for nature are the key factors that help us obtain high quality
coffee.
I am so very happy because I feel that the efforts of all of us (family,
workers, exporters) is being rewarded.
