Lo De Morales farm located in Morales Village, the farm is located 2 km all the way up to mountain from Morales town. To get to the farm the road is surrounded by trees, small creeks and eventually the road start to get harder and the forest starts to get dense. This farm was stablished in 2005, naming it Lo De Morales because it is the closest farm to Morales Town.
When it was purchased the farm already had coffee trees planted -Catuai and Pache- producing only commercial coffees with a special treatment to produce outstanding coffees.
José Monterroso started to plant Pacamara and Geisha as exo4c varie4es with a unique aim -to produce specialty coffees- He knew that part of producing specialty coffees was the selection of good varieties, besides that the agronomical practices are so important that is why the nutrition in this farm is a combina4on of chemical and organic fertilizers, where the chemical fertilizer release the nutrients in an easy way and the organic works along the year providing a great balance for the soil fertility.
During the harvest season, up to 45 seasonal laborers and 12 permanent employees are used for all agricultural procedures. The individuals that labor on the farm are responsible for the production of the exquisite coffees that are enjoyed by people worldwide.
Trees management is one of the key things we undertake each year to guarantee consistent productivity year after year. By replenishing old plantations, trimming large or old trees, and planting new areas annually, we can maintain a consistent level of productivity. Every activity is planned in accordance with the trees neeed and weather conditions. However, every single year the duties are planned one month ahead in order to be able to fulfill all the needs of the farm.
