    Description

    Hello, we are a fully organic farm. We are transforming our land into a place of peace. It's a family project. We have farm animals, an eco-garden, aquaponics, and local crops such as cacao, bananas, and greens. We have 10 hectares of protected forest because we love nature. Our project is to provide ecotourism, and we occasionally host guests on weekends. We are passionate about chocolate, so we not only grow cacao but also transform it by hand into many other products. We are also building a bio-pool and trails. There are many things to do and explore. The day is very entertaining, the food is delicious, and the atmosphere is very welcoming. And since we are only 15 km from Atacames Beach, we frequently enjoy the ocean.

    What else ...

    Our farm is a beautiful place in the middle of nature, surrounded by mountains and rich vegetation, 20 minutes from Atacames-Esmeraldas. Our family is very simple, happy, and very dynamic. We like to work and are always building something and transforming cacao into delicious chocolate. We usually eat together, and in our free time, we like to watch movies. My son, Jhon, is in charge of the farm. At just 18 years old, he's a true farmer. He's versatile, responsible, loves the countryside, and every day he works to transform our land into a more pleasant and productive place.
