Coffee in Permaculture - sustainability and harmony with life
The experience
Project focused on organic production with Permaculture; we accompany coffee cultivation with aromatic herbs, fruit trees, and many other plants, as the forest does — there is no competition, there is harmony.
Also organic construction practices, including guadua, which is abundant in the area, are part of the objectives we want to achieve.
We are building chinampas (floating islands) in a lagoon that is within the property.
