Don Pedro Romero is one of Cooperativa Cafetalera Capucas Limitada’s most active and innovative members. This year Don Pedro prepared 27 quintales of washed parchment coffee, 5 quintales of dry processed Catuaii as well as shockingly tasty 30lbs of dry processed Maragogype.

A man of diversity, Don Pedro has maintained a hardwood tree nursery on his property (earning him the nickname Pedro Cedro, meaning “Cedar Peter”) and also raised a variety of other ornamental plants. He is particularly active in the community of Capucas as well, coordinating various social outreach projects, including dental brigades and helping to host visitors to the Cooperative and community. In fact, Don Pedro and Dona Norma were kind enough to host us when we visited Cooperative Capucas this past March.

Don Pedro is very enthusiastic about the certification processes and says that because he no longer uses chemical pesticides or herbicides on his farm, he sees a great variety of frogs, iguanas, birds and squirrels amid the coffee trees of his plantation.
