Meet Maritza and Francisco Javier, a dynamic duo of the coffee world! This farming couple has a unique twist: they each own their own plots of land, breaking the traditional mold where usually the land is in the man's name.
Maritza is often spotted washing coffee beans, while Francisco proudly totes sacks to be depulped and fermented. And get this—Francisco’s family even donated land to the community to build a church, which now sits snugly next to their coffee plots.
They love welcoming visitors, eagerly showcasing their lush coffee farms and the meticulous process behind their prized beans. Thanks to a boost from Gold Mountain Coffee Growers, Maritza and Francisco now have a shiny new truck to transport their coffee from the fields to their micromill with ease. It's a partnership fueled by passion and a dash of community spirit!
