Mariana Figueroa Dicue owns Finca El Paraiso, which is a 3 hectare farm in the Yaquiva village of Inza, Cauca, Colombia
Mariana takes deep care of her small farm and spoke to us about the importance of maintaining the trees by pruning and cleaning three to four times a year and being very diligent about managing Roya on her farm. She also actively applies organic fertilizers to improve the microbiological conditions of the soil. 
 
 
Mariana began her journey in the coffee industry at the tender age of 18, starting with 1500 Caturra coffee plants. Having experienced the loss of her father at a young age, Mariana received guidance from her brother, who taught her the art of coffee growing. After graduating from high school, she dedicated herself wholeheartedly to the production of coffee. In time, Mariana started her own family and raised four children with her partner. Now, her aspirations revolve around expanding her coffee farm and working with her eldest son. Driven by hard work, determination, and the unwavering support of her loved ones, Mariana continues to pursue her dreams.
