Finca Santa Margarita is the family farm of one of our trading partners, Camila Topke, and is operated in large part by women. I visited Guatemala in May with Camila and learned firsthand the challenges that producers in Guatemala are facing.The farm was founded in 1838 by Thomas Wyld (Camila’s great grandfather) and has been in the family or four generations. Today, the farm is 2,320 hectares - 812 of which are coffee farm, with Caturra, Sarchimor, Catimor, and Geisha varieties, and the rest of which is natural forest land devoted to the promotion of natural species and wildlife biodiversity.
