Villa Linda is a farm near the town of La Plata in the Huila region of Colombia.
The 5 hectare farm is owned by Juan Carlos Campos, a kind old guy who spends his time growing passionfruit, fishing for trout in the farm’s lake, and farming coffee. His crop is made up of both Caturra and Colombia varietals of coffee.
Previously he sold his all coffee to the local co-operative and was earning the minimum price for his coffee. He now sells his crop of the higher quality Caturra varietal on the specialty coffee market and earns much higher prices due for this coffee. Some of the extra income is reinvested in to the farm to further improve the quality of his crop.
