Henry Prado and Ana Jiménez own Finca El Cafetal which is a 13 hectare farm that has 7 hectares planted in coffee. They have planted roughly 14,000 coffee trees. Henry and Ana utilise a wet fermentation for 35-48 hours then dry their coffee on raised African beds for 28-35 days. They produce both washed and natural coffees, this micro-lot is a Natural. They produce roughly 6500 kgs of coffee annually. Rising costs for fertilisers and other inputs are a huge challenge right now. They are investigating new ways to create fertilisers on their farm for future harvests.
