I began in coffee crops very young. I was originally and handpicker and I used to go working to the area of Caldas and Quindio. I saved the money I earn that time, and I could buy the farm from my uncle. I bought the farm when I was 23 years old. The members of my family are my mother Deifilia and my aunt Irmina we do all the job in the house of the farm. I do have in the farm, in addition to coffee: beans, corn, yucca, plantain and other fruit trees, all for the house consumption. My dream is to buy a bigger farm because the one I have now is too small (1.3 hectares)
