About Us

“Our objective in Finca Cialitos is to preserve Puerto Rico’s treasures. In the hands of the people that live the land. This is the real fair trade; farmer from the origin – client. For us it is a pleasure to bring light to your imagination with a mix of the newest technology and traditional agricultural practices. The viewers’ direct interaction will grow with the trees as the coffee plantation grows older... Your sponsorship will benefit Puerto Rico’s agriculture directly.
Agronomist Joaquin Pastor González

Finca Cialito’s Birth

Finca Cialitos has been known as a coffee farm for more than 60 years. Joaquin González Cajiao, my late grandfather, one of the few agronomist of his time, bought these lands neighboring Toro Negro Sector, in Ciales, Puerto Rico, and has since dedicated them to shade coffee farm. Finca Cialitos has an extension of about 100 acres (200 cuerdas) and is located at the top of the central mountain range, minutes from Toro Negro. About 2000- 3000 feet above sea level.

The farm is divided in two parts, one dedicated to agriculture and the other a natural tropical forest. The farm harvest fruits such as: oranges, grapefruit, avocados, bananas, “lady finger” bananas and coffee. You will also find the Coffee Roasting House. The natural forest has diverse trails for those who enjoy hiking, spectacular panoramic views or the simple pleasures of observing nature in full color. Perfect for bird watching! The farm borders with Toro Negro river and exotic “Los Morones” pond. We say exotic because it is a remote pond with very few visitors and accessible only to the most adventurous. On the west side of the farm you can go hiking down the steep forest to a natural spring of pure and constant water that flows from a rock. Alas, Finca Cialitos is a world of natural wonder which you can’t miss!
