To these settlers, coffee was more than just a crop, it was an opportunity to ward off an era of insecurity and uncertainty. Coffee remains an important crop for Cundinamarca. It has improved the socioeconomic condition of the region and employs an immense number of workers. Coffee plants found ideal living conditions throughout the Eastern Andean range, and to a smaller extent on the slopes of the Llanos Orientales (Eastern Plains). Boundless biodiversity and generous ecosystems yielded diverse coffee terroirs. These elements along with eco-friendly coffee producers allowed coffee to grow and flourish in a predominantly shade systems. The coffee tradition is the pillar and main source of income for thousands of families in Cundinamarca.
