El Injerto I

The first owner of the farm was Mr. Jesus Aguirre Panama, who acquired it in 1874. He began growing sugar cane to produce crystallized sugar, corn, beans and tobacco, locally known as "panela". In 1900, he began to grow coffee and called this part EL INJERTO because it began the development of agriculture in the region.

The current boss is Arturo Aguirre Escobar, who represents the third generation of his family. He has been working on the farm since 1956, when the output was about 300 bags and 100 pounds.

EL INJERTO has a total land area of 447 hectares, mostly between 1500 and 2000 meters (4921.26-6561.82 feet) above sea level, with coffee, orchards, basic grains and ornamental plants. The remaining few hectares are reserved as millennium virgin forests, which gives the farm a special climate and sufficient conditions to obtain clean water directly from the mountains. In addition, it constitutes a perfect habitat for animals and plants; in particular, it allows coffee to be produced in the ecosystem to protect our natural environment. The forest surrounds the coffee plantation. Annual rainfall 1800-200mm, relative humidity 75%, average temperature 73 °C (23 °C). The soil is volcanic soil with deep soil layer, good drainage and high content of organic matter.
