ABOUT
Evaristo Palomino is a young producer from Cusco in south Perú, his farm is called "La Esperanza" and is situated on the south facing slope of the mountain called Inis Pata around an hour walk from the closest village called Pacayamba.
Evaristo is a partner in "Coop Agraria Cafetalera Incahausi" his farm is at a very high altitude at 2450 meters above sea level, that makes it one of the highest within the whole cooperative.
On the farm Evaristo produce a mixture of typica and bourbon on 1.75 hectares and he also has a separate plot of half hectares planted with Geisha.
Evaristo has been part of the cooperative for four years now and he decided to partner up with CACVI thanks to the great work that the coop manager and his team of specialists had been putting in place to enable local producer to process their coffees as specialty fetching different prices based on the quality of their production.
Along those incentives CACVI provide to their producers high quality technical advise in farm management and help them implement better farming practices tailored for each individual farm.
