Marcala

About

"I started attending meetings of women coffee growers and wanted to have my own farm. That is how Dilma Mini was born, thanks to the support of my husband, who offered me a small coffee farm. It wasn't easy, but with hard work Dilma Mini Farm has grown. "

The Mini Granja Dilma farm is located at an altitude of 1,300 metres in Musula, in the Marcala region (department of La Paz). It is a family farm that has been managed by passionate producers for 3 generations and is now owned by Maria Dolorez Zelaya, with her husband and children. They work together using responsible and organic production methods. While coffee is the farm’s main crop (with 35 hectares of planted coffee trees), it is also used for horticultural, flower and poultry production. There are
shade trees all over the farm. There is a harmonious mix of endemic species and fruit trees: Guamo, Guajiniquil, Pepeto, Oak, Pine, Liquidambar, Camaka, Pepper, Anona, Japanese Plum, Tamazano, Sucunam, Mango, Peach, Avocado, Orange, Lemon, Guachipilin, Estorac and Bamboo.
