Doña Lucía is a sweet and hardworking lady. Mother of 12, when her husband died almost 30 years ago, she carried on their common dream of growing amazing coffee. The farm started with a 3 acre plantation: she ran the commercial side of the business while he tended the coffee. Since then, Finca El Guayabo has grown in size and production, and Lucia continues to be an integral part, doing “a little bit of everything,” she says.

To this day, she is still full of energy and passionate about coffee.
