Farm

The smooth hills in Palestina creates a special landscape for the coffee in San Isidro Farm. The area looks more tropical and green than other parts of Colombia, partly due to higher moisture. Don Alirio inherited the farm and his love for the coffee life from his father and now the continues the tradition with hard work and continued improvement of the coffee practices.
