The store part of the plantation where packages of roasted beans could be purchased. Snacks were also available, such as chocolate covered coffee beans, sodas, and water.

The road up the volcano was paved with bricks and was steep with switch-backs for climbing.

Huge flowers were in bloom on the property. Here was one blooming behind the exhibit room.

Another building housed the exhibits. Here on the front porch was a description of how the plantation operated in a sustainable manner.

A small park or grassy area below the exhibit hall featured not only a view of the coffee plants, but a view of all Nicaragua beyond.

A typical tourist van drove back down the volcano.

Poinsettias thrived next to the back porch of the exhibit hall. Clouds at that altitude provided lots of moisture as could be seen here condensing on the leaves.

Inside the exhibit hall was both a place to sample the coffee produced there and the different colors of roasted beans. Note that they did not roast their own coffee. The sent it down into Managua to be roasted, then brought some of the roasted coffee back up to be sold.

An old machine was on exhibit in the park behind the exhibit hall. No sign was available describing its prior use.

Below the small park was a large area upon which coffee beans were dried. Note several men working to repair the surface.

Here was one of the several men working to repair the surface of the coffee bean drying area below the park.

In addition to the store and the exhibit hall, there were several other buildings on the grounds. Here, behind a damp driveway, was a long building with two workers exiting a pickup truck next to it. Their entry was loud because the area was so quiet.
