About
Finca Galeras is located on the slopes of the Galeras Volcano at 2033m above sea level making this is one of the highest farms we buy from in Nariño. The trees on the farm are all between ten and eighteen years old. Roberto has preserved the trees on the farm rather than replanting as he believes with maintenance and good pruning there is no need to replace the older trees. Despite all the difficulties of the pandemic, one benefit for Roberto has been being able to share more time and coffee knowledge with his son, Jeison Andrés Melo. Jeison Andres is studying and in his last semester of Business Administration in the city of Pasto. His studies have taken him away from the farm but now his college is doing all lessons online, he has been able to help his father in harvesting and managing the farm. Roberto is very grateful and happy because his son's support has made it easier for him to work on this harvest during these demanding times.
