Luz Edy Gomez El Lirio Farm
Luz Edy stared working in coffee since she was a little girl bringing food to the coffee workers at her parents’ farm. When she was 19 she visited the Chaparral area, where she met her partner in life, Leonardo, and decided to stay and raise their family there. Not long after, they struggled with conflict-related security problems and were eventually forced to move out and stay away for more that 10 years. Six years ago all her family moved back and decided to start from scratch and build a new life in “El Lirio“ farm. For Luz Edy and her family coffee is their way of life and they appreciated it and take care of it with passion.
