Torunes Farm Our Bees Make the Difference

At Torunes Farm, our bees are more than just pollinators—they are the heart of our thriving ecosystem. Every flower that blooms, every fruit that ripens, and every vibrant burst of color across the landscape is a testament to their tireless work. With a carefully nurtured habitat rich in diverse trees, flowering plants, and vines, we provide our bees with a continuous source of nectar, ensuring their health and vitality. In return, they sustain the farm’s natural balance, enhancing biodiversity and enriching the land. Their gentle hum is a reminder of the quiet but powerful role they play, turning blossoms into abundance and making Torunes Farm a place where nature flourishes in harmony.

Torunes Farm: Organic Coffee and Pollinator Conservation

​

Since 1897, Torunes Farm in Palmares, Costa Rica, has been a leader in coffee. For the past three decades Torunes has championed the movement to organic coffee cultivation. Certified by USDA and Eco-LOGICA, the Esquivel family prioritizes sustainable farming, rejecting synthetic pesticides to protect the environment. Handpicked coffee cherries are sun-dried and small-batch roasted for premium quality.

 

Beyond coffee, the farm supports Melipona bees through its Bee Oasis, a habitat fostering pollinator health and biodiversity. Through direct trade, Torunes Farm sustains local families and conservation efforts.

 

Blending tradition with sustainability, it remains a benchmark for organic coffee and ecological stewardship in Costa Rica.
