A week or so ago I took a trip to visit a farm. This farm is an old cacao plantation. The family that owns it is planning to reactivate it as a farm. It was last operational during the Spanish colonial period. One family that worked for the Spaniards who then owned the farm has stayed on the land and are now employed by the EG family that is trying to make the farm profitable. Thier plan is to start by selling off the wood on the land and use the money from that wood to finance other projects. First on the list is fixing up the buildings and roads. They also have plans to do some processing of cacao beans on the farm. Other plans include aquaculture and growing a variety of other crops. We also ate a delicous lunch at Cuatro Ases in Luba, which may also be called Hotel Jones and went to the beach.
Moving on from the Bear House
