Carlos Trujillo - Patio Bonito (GrainPro)

View Beanology

Patio Bonito is a hard working, family run farm located in Municipio de Caldono, Cauca. The farm consists of 5 hectares, with 52 different products and 25,000 coffee trees. The passionate approach for quality and attention to detail at Patio Bonito is comparable only to that of an eagle scout packing his bag for a long hike.

We learned about Patio Bonito's strategic principals on our visit when they fed us an unbelievable home cooked meal, followed by a power point presentation.

Notes from the powerpoint:

The operations at Patio bonito are grounded in 3 core values: food security, soil conservation and management, and Coffee Cultivation.

Patio Bonito's Mission:

"To provide alternatives and training to farmers and students on the management, conservation, and exploration of natural resources and the environment."

Patio Bonito's Philosophy:

“The best legacy we can leave to our children is: love, knowledge, and a planet in which to live."
