The farm is located in the Ataco region of Ahuachapán, where approximately 70 people work. We named it “La Montaña” because most of the farm is situated on a mountain. From the very beginning, we aimed to plant high-quality coffee varieties to take advantage of its elevation.
We are a second-generation family business. We have social assistance programs, including access to dental care for children in the area, as well as a school supplies distribution program for local children.
