Finca Ceylan is based on sustainability. The farm manages and conserves its natural resources by growing various crops and encouraging all local flora and fauna to co-exist with the coffee plantations. The farm has existed since the 1870s, over the years becoming more established and growing in size, owned by the Echeverria family. Finca Ceylan provides support for its employees, such as access to medical care and education and improving living standards for families. The climate is fairly mild, with average temperatures of 20C. The terrain is a mixture of steep slopes with extensive plateaus; the soil is volcanic clay, well-drained and stony.
