Pedro has found great success at his other three farms, El Milagrito, La Sierra and Las Flores. So much so that he has bought himself a fourth plot of land in which to cultivate coffee. In 2018, Pedro bought one manzana of land near El Cedral village. This manzana faces east, meaning it is bathed in sunlight all day until the early afternoon when the sun moves behind the tree line and it is often covered by the mists that settle around the mountains through the early evenings. The farm is named Finca La Cima del Cielo, and is a wonderful example of how the Project Origin auctions have benefitted producers in building a sustainable life for themselves. The farm was purchased with the funds Pedro earned entering our ‘Best of Honduras: Late Harvest Auction’ and placing in 6th in 2016 resulting in his coffee selling for USD9.10/lb that year. We are excited - as we are every harvest - to present the lots from this manzana and from this talented producer, and we continually look forward to seeing what Pedro will produce in the coming harvests.
