Our Purpose
Our purpose is to live peaceably on our farm and use the land to provide opportunity to our community. The people of Biolley are very industrious and kind. They are sincere in improving their lives. The women’s group ASAMOBI has a fantastic story to tell. They managed to get a grant for coffee processing and this provides the women with some earnings. They are attempting their hand at tourism, but from their position it is not easy. This is where we come in. We want to bring awareness and help promote the right kind of tourism for the La Amistad International Park and provide more opportunity for the women and youth to make some earnings from tourism.
We have provided two very poor workers full time work at more than the minimum wage, health benefits, retirement benefits as well as a newly built house for our main worker and his family. The farm was not developed before we purchased it. It now has electricity lines going to the farm and municipal water. The electricity lines help the two poor farmers who have farms adjacent to ours. Several pages inside this site talk about making a difference. In particular, a good read is: bcrcoffee.com/community/making-a-difference/
This page will continue to grow as will our progress and purpose!
PURA VIDA!
