About the family
Jairo and his family have deep roots in the area. Although his parents were not born here, his mother took on the role of a homemaker, and his father became a passionate farmer. From a young age, Jairo was taught all about coffee and received support from farmer incentive programs. Even though wildlife occasionally feasts on his bananas, his commitment to conserving the forest, water, and wildlife remains strong, turning his farm into a sanctuary of life and rooted tradition.
