History
Cundinamarca’s coffee tradition grew in the 19th and 20th centuries as smallholder fincas shifted production from colonial estates, shaping the region’s rural economy and foodways.
Conservation
Many Colombian fincas practice small-scale, shade-grown and wet-processing methods to reduce erosion and protect water; visitors can help by staying on trails and avoiding single-use plastics.
