GRUPO ASOCIATIVO San Isidro

Historical account In 1979, eight coffee growers from the district San Isidro of the town Acevedo-Huila joined their forces to establish a shop so that the inhabitants did not have to move to the Acevedo’s municipality in order to get their supplies. Six years later, the Grupo Asociativo San Isidro was legally established. It was constituted by 15 partners and their families. Currently, the Cooperative holds 72 members. The Grupo Asociativo San Isidro fosters the clean agriculture and trains its members in the use of biofertilizers
