Farm:
Divina Providencia Estate, Dipilto I inherited from my father an acre of land, one which I worked on with a lot of effort along with my brothers. We all inherited an acre each, however, not all my brothers shared the same passion for coffee, which is why each of them started selling me their piece of land until I am now the owner of 8 acres. I managed to buy the land by saving after each harvest. Divina Providencia, is the name of my modest farm located in Dipilto. Its name comes from the Holy Scriptures. I learned about the hard work in the coffee plantations since I was young. By tradition I know to wake up very early and take control the farm. I have won several times The Cup of Excellence which is why I personally take care of my coffee. The shade is provided by different trees such as, guaba red and black, bucaro, chilamates, mora, jocotes, zapotes and mango.
