Background:
Ernelio Ortiz owns and manages Finca El Pedrero in the Montecillos region of Honduras.
This 12 hectare farm is almost completely planted in coffee, with some smaller sections also have Aguacate or Avocado trees. Ernelio estimates he has roughly 56,000 coffee trees, mostly Catuai and IHCAFE 90 varieties.
From our coffee importer - "Ernelio spoke to us about his gratitude for coffee and how it has improved the quality of life for his family. He believes that his care for the environment on his farm has led to increased quality production and better prices for his coffee."
