The name 'Comuneros' pays homage to the revolutionary history of the region
Certified organic and bird-friendly, Finca La Pradera stands out for its innovative approach to coffee farming.
At the heart of its model is a complex agroforestry system comprising three layers of shade and fifteen different tree species. This structure not only protects the coffee trees from direct sunlight, but also provides a rich habitat for local biodiversity and migratory birds.
The farm uses sustainable farming practices, including terracing to combat erosion and adapt to climate change. Mixed farming, including fruit trees and poultry, diversifies income and food resources.
100% organic compost, produced locally from a mixture of filtered wastewater, chicken manure and plant waste, is used to feed the coffee trees.
The social dimension is a key concern, with facilities for seasonal workers designed to retain essential labour during the harvest period.
