Guillermo Saucedo Neira has owned the 5-hectare farm Finca La Peña since 2020. He works the farm alongside his family, who help with the production process. They do almost everything manually, from harvesting to weeding. Coffee is usually washed, but he is also experimenting with natural processing. On the farm, they also raise guinea pigs. His goals are to produce very high-quality coffee, equip himself with improved infrastructure, have a nice house, and invest in his children's education. In their community, they celebrate several patron saint festivals. One of the largest events is a celebration of the Assumption of the Virgin. Each year, they hold a feast that brings together people from all around the region.
