STORY
Silverio Nina is a 38-year-old producer who started Finca Oro Verde with his wife 6 years ago. It’s originally his father-in-law, Don Gregorio, who offered them a plot of land next to his house so they could run their own coffee plantation. During the harvest, they hire 8 seasonal workers who live on the farm and help pick and sort the cherries. At the end of every day, Silverio delivers the coffee to Agricafé’s Buena Vista mill near Caranavi. Alongside coffee, he also produces bananas, oranges, and papayas for the family consumption.
