Coffee, Bananas, and More

The male head of household provided us with a walking tour of the farm. The farm is located on a hillside. They grow coffee, bananas, goats, pigs, chickens, eggplant, garlic, cilantro, mint, lettuce, onion, cabbage, and basil just to name a few! He shared unique strategies for keeping pests and other unwanted creatures away from his valuable plants. He uses raised beds and strategic planting to prevent soil erosion on the hillside. The view from the farm included an active volcano in Turrialba, Costa Rica.
