Prospero's story

Prospero is 39 years old. His home is located in the Alto Pucha, Tabaconas small village. He lives with his wife and younger school-age son. Prospero has been growing organic coffee for eight years. It is sold in a local co-op. In addition, he also earns more income by raising and selling small animals. Prospero will use the loan to buy organic fertilizer and pay for day labor to weed the coffee plantation.
