In an emotional ceremony held in the picturesque community of Ciricito Arriba, Capira, the Third Coffee Harvest began in the Western Panama region. More than 300 enthusiastic attendees, including farmers, coffee lovers and community leaders, gathered to mark the beginning of the harvest season, which promises to be a significant milestone for the local coffee industry.

The activity had the participation of 20 exhibitors, highlighting the diversity and quality of coffee beans grown in the area.
