About the family

José, from Belén de los Andaquíes, and his wife decided to acquire a property imbued with a deep family tradition. This land, which in past years flourished under the cultivation of cocoa guided by the expert hands of Jose’s father, is not merely a piece of land. It is a living testament to past stories and a tangible commitment to the environment, ensuring the comprehensive protection of wildlife and the valuable water sources that adorn it.
