Walter’s grandfather initially purchased the farm, buying more land over time. Walter, who also runs the farm with his three brothers and mother, is now the third generation to work this land.

Finca Las Cumbres was chosen as one of the regional winners of B2B Nicaragua in 2019, which makes Walter feel proud that the fruits of his labor are being recognized on an international level. However, Walter recognizes that his success is nothing without the workers on the farm who help contribute to the production of coffee and he even pays higher than standard wages, as well as lending money without interest rates to some of the workers who also produce coffee.
