Noruega

About this coffee

Finca Noruega consists of 43 manzanas planted with a range of varieties from bourbon to geisha in the Ahuachapán mountain range in the west of El Salvador. This farm is part of the Los Naranjos group headed by Sigfredo Corado, a retired professor of agronomy from the National School of Agriculture. The farm is part of the Renacer Program which is a technical coffee field school for producers in the area to learn about better farm management practices. This program is funded by Raices (Roots) and supported by Catholic Relief Services in El Salvador.

The Technical field school is led by Sigfredo with 6 field technicians and helps small to medium producers in the area by training in best farm practices that are restorative for the land and soil, as well as beneficial for the yield and quality of the coffee. The field school is based here at Finca Noruega, where classes are held twice a month. They focus on a program developed for soil health: Right Source, Right Dose, Right Place, Right Moment.
