ABOUT THE PLANTATION
The very first plantation to earn the UTZ Certified certification in Colombia, Hacienda Venecia Estate is owned by a family whose coffee experience spans four generations. The plantation is located in one of the most renowned regions of Colombia, within the Caldas mountain range. Managed by a team of professionals, each specializing in their own area of expertise (agronomy, agriculture, environment, etc.), almost 100 people live on the estate, and more than 400 workers are hired during the harvesting season.
The estate offers several social development programs to their staff and makes sure to use sustainable practices. Having great respect for their land and their environment, they also take all the necessary precautions to minimize their ecological footprint.
Grown on volcanic soils, the cherries are carefully handpicked.
