The farm it is run by Don Angel, he has been the farm manager for the last three decades.
This farm it is located in the Apaneca-Ilampatepec Coffee Region, most accurate in Cantón, El Arado in the Municipy of Chalchuapa, Santa Ana.
The plantation management perform soil studies to determine the lack of nutrients and try to supply them with the fertilization. Also, the weed management we do it with “machete o cumas” not use of chemicals. Most of the coffee trees are from 5 – 15 years old. We are renovated with younger coffees to increase the production.
The farm utilises the practises taught at the Renacer field School which is headed Sigfredo Corado who had already started to help producers in this region before Renacer was established. Sigrfredo is a retired Agronomy Professor who had established with business partners the los Naranjos Group farms (Los Angeles & Finca Noruega) as well as a wet mill. At Renacer he leads a team of 6 field technicians to help small to medium producers in the area by focusing on best farm practises that are restorative for the land and soil as well as beneficial for the yield and quality of the coffee. The field school is based at the farm named Finca Noruega (another Los Naranjos farm) where there is a class held twice a month for the students.
