Luzmila is a dedicated first-generation coffee farmer and has been producing coffee since 2008 with the support of her husband Eider. Luzmila now owns two farms in Gaitania, Tolima: El Oasis (10 hectares - 1750 m.a.s.l.) and El Recreo (4 hectares - 1600 m.a.s.l.)
Luzmila produces mainly traditional Colombian varieties on her coffee farms such as Castillo, Caturra and Colombia.
It took around four years of learning and overcoming challenges before Luzmila felt proud of the coffees she was producing. She then made the shift towards organic practices and 8 years after establishing El Oasis she was able to gain Organic certification. Luzmila participates in local coffee competitions and her coffee is always amongst the finalists.
