Coffee Mekbuda C ACIT

Clara Molina and Carlos Castañeda are the couple who run the Villa Inés farm, and they and their family work and live on the farm. Carlos had dedicated himself to work in the sugar cane and panela crops until 1998 when he joined the army. Clara is the third generation of coffee growers in her family, she decided to try her luck in the urban area and look for work there, but the situation for women was difficult, and she did not have job stability. Clara’s father was the one who encouraged and supported the couple to invest and buy the Farm Villa Inés. When they bought the farm, it was in bad condition, the coffee plantations and the house were abandoned and there was no mill, so they had to go to the neighbor’s house to mill their coffee, and there was no road to enter the farm directly. Gradually with the help of family, loved ones and work They managed to improve the Farm and the facilities until they achieved what is today the family’s home. Clara and Carlos are fulfilled and happy with what they do, are eager to learn and to undertake new projects to continue working and building, dedicating themselves to coffee growing is the best decision they have made.
