Agropecuaria Lum
Convinced of the damage caused by chemicals to human health and the environment, we decided to work on our own organic farm. For more than 20 years, we have performed weeds manual control and a shaded coffee system.
Our farms are located at the Occidental Valley in Palmares and San Ramon, Alajuela, at an altitude of 1,200 and 1,400 meters a.s.l. In this project the whole family is involved: Honorio, Carmen, and our three children: Loreth, Paulina and Marcelo. We are pleased to present this project, and make you part in this sustainable program.
