Genova is a village located in the region of Quindio. As the most traditional and ancient coffee region, Quindio has been one of the most important departments and sources of development of coffee culture in Colombia. Its towns are one of the most touristy and visited places in Colombia and coffee is the main attraction for visitors. In fact, the coffee culture, which has developed for decades in the region, was the main factor for the recognition by UNESCO of the Coffee Cultural Landscape (CCL), which means that the landscape and its culture should be protected as cultural heritage of humanity. It is not only about coffee, the elements of this culture are related to traditional cars, typical food and the beautiful structure and colours of the houses in the coffee towns and farms.
Average temperatures range from 16 to 22°C. The municipality, like the rest of the Department, benefits from its position within the Andean region due to its diverse thermal floors, which provide significant opportunities for agricultural production diversification and overall land use. Its strategic location can be seen as a development hub, leveraging its potential in water resources, biological diversity, soil quality, economic factors, and cultural assets. In Génova, there are approximately 774 coffee-producing families who cultivate their coffee at elevations ranging from 1,500 to 1,900 meters above sea level, in a loamy-clay soil type.
