Hernan Martinez is a high-altitude farm located in the Opalaca Region. The farm has been dedicated to growing coffee for more than 20 years. They aim is to work towards a stable and conscious market by focusing their farming efforts on cultivating specialty coffee. With specialty coffee, the volumes are often smaller, which is better for the family’s work-life balance.
Quality is their priority: Hernan Martinez focuses on plant nutrition and selective picking in order to get the best quality possible. His grandfather was the first family member working in coffee in Guatincara Village, Erandique Lempira. That makes him the third generation of coffee growers. Nevertheless, his grandfather and father Alejandrino Martinez were focus on conventional coffees only.
