蜂鳥莊園
我是米爾娜·利澤思·多明格斯·馬爾克斯(Mirna Lizeth Domínguez Márquez)，我是第三代的咖啡農。
我的爸媽瑪麗亞·瑞里·馬爾克斯(María Nery Márquez) 和阿方索·多明格斯 (Alfonso Domínguez) 各自都是咖啡農莊的經營者，所以從小我就是在咖啡莊園裡長大的孩子，也因為這樣的生長環境讓我慢慢在成長過程中喚醒了我對咖啡全然的熱情。
我們一大早就開始工作，在田野里度過漫長的一天，種植和收穫高品質的咖啡豆需要很多的專注和努力。但當你看到最終的產品時，一切都是值得的。新鮮磨碎的咖啡的濃郁香氣和鮮烈的口味，本身就是一種收獲。而知道你參與了為人們提供美味咖啡的過程，也是一種真正的滿足感。
作為咖啡農民最困難的一面就是面對天氣和害蟲的變幻。作物突然被風暴或昆蟲入侵破壞並不少見。但是通過多年的經驗，我們已經學會了如何適應和克服這些障礙。另一個具有挑戰性的方面是咖啡豆在市場上的價格波動。了解市場和擁有多樣化的收入來源非常重要。
儘管有困難，但沒有什麼比走遍咖啡農場，看到郁郁蔥蔥的綠色植物發展得更好更有成就感和驕傲感了。
長年來持續協助種植咖啡，經歷了很多豐收也經歷了許多困難，而非常值得開心的是，2018年，我成為了蜂鳥莊園的獨立經營者，持續發揮我對咖啡的熱愛，注入在蜂鳥莊園這片土地。
FINCA EL COLIBRI
I come from a family of coffee farmers and it's in my blood. My parents, María Nery Márquez and Alfonso Domínguez, have been growing coffee for years with lots of passion and hard work. From a young age, I was always around the coffee farms and it sparked a passion in me as I got older.
Being a coffee farmer isn't always easy, but the rewards make it worth it. From the early morning starts to the long days in the field, it takes a lot of dedication and hard work to grow and harvest high-quality coffee beans.
But when you see the final product, it's all worth it. The rich aroma and bold flavor of a freshly brewed cup of coffee is a reward in itself. And knowing that you played a part in bringing that delicious cup of coffee to the table is truly satisfying.
One of the most challenging aspects of being a coffee farmer is dealing with the unpredictable nature of weather and pests. It's not uncommon for a crop to be devastated by a sudden storm or an infestation of insects. But through years of experience, we have learned how to adapt and overcome these obstacles.
Another challenging aspect is the price fluctuation of the coffee beans in the market. It's important to have a good understanding of the market and to have diversified income sources.
Despite the difficulties, there's nothing quite like the feeling of walking through a coffee farm and seeing the lush green plants flourishing. The sense of accomplishment and pride that comes from being a coffee farmer is truly special. And that's why I love what I do.
